Makar in the bumper position... You heard it here first.

I like it if you switch Nate and Cale.
Cale can take one timers in Nate's spot, MacKinnon in the bumper with his quick hands and accurate shot, and Byram running the PP at the point where he might be better than Cale at doing so.

Byram and Makar can constantly switch off and confuse the PK at the points too. And they should draw up some plays where Nate switches back to the circle for one timers too.
Landy and Mikko can switch off down low. And they've got the option for the up high to down low pass to the goal line like Makar's pass for Landy's goal the other day. Plus the down low guy has the option to pass to Nate in the bumper.
And they've still got the Makar/MacKinnon pass through the box for Mikko's one timer.
It'll be confusing as hell for the opposition to try and read what they're setting up with all those options, and Bo and Cale switching off and dancing along the blueline.
