Really want to see the bottom 3 lines as:

Schwartz-Thomas-Fabbri
Sanford-Bozak-Maroon
MacEachern-Barbashev-Sundqvist

We know that Sunny and Bbshev were dynamite together before, it gets Thomas back to center on an offensively oriented line (yes, I realize Schwartz hasn't been scoring), and gives Fabbri a line to transition into with speed and creativity. And the other line can be your meh line that dumps, chases, and goes offsides.

Probably not trying to change too many of the lines given our recent success, which makes sense, but I want to see it nonetheless.

What's not to like?
Sundqvist is actually producing as a quality 3rd liner. Maroon has no business being above the 4th line. Flip them.

At even strength, I would play the "4th line" as I have it, a good bit more. Maroon and Bozak will realistically get PP time (whether we think it's deserved or not) so they'll probably have more ice time in the end than Barbashev or Mac. Keep Sunny on PP and PK.

I'd leave them as I have them. Label the lines as "3rd, 4th" as you want.
