What do you think will be the lines, pairs, and units, based on who they got in the Expansion Draft? If you were their coach, what would you do?
Worst team ever?Based on what we currently have?
Perron - Shipacyov - Neal
xxxx - Eakin - Smith
xxxx - Haula - Marchassault
Lindberg - Karlsson - Pulkinnen
Methot - Theodore
Schlemko - Miller
Schmidt - Engelland
Fleury
Pickard
Noone they drafted would be good enough to play middle six LW. Those would be filled by FA's. Maybe throw money at Bonino and Marleau.
But, of course, this lineup will look quite different tomorrow night, and even more so after July 1st.
Worst team ever?
Not even close.
- Fleury is a top 10 goalie.
- Methot is shutdown 2/3D
- Thedore is a top 4 guy who could be pushing for top 3 status by end of the year
- Schlemko - Miller are a decent middle pair
- Schmidt - Engelland is a high end third pair
- that 4th line is probably one of the better ones in the league
- Haula is an ideal 3C
- Marchassault has the skill, shot, and IQ to hit 15-25 yearly, and he's on the third line
- Smith is an ideal second line wing
- Eakin is a high end 3C, and could hold his own at 2C short term
- The first line is a low end first line, but still a legit first line
If you gave them a 1D and a LW better than Perron to bump him down to the second line, then I would call them a top 3 finisher in the Pacific
Worst team ever?
Peter Sidorkiewicz, goal
Ken Hammond, defence
Brad Shaw, defence
Neil Brady, centre
Jody Hull, right wing
Sylvain Turgeon, left wing
Others: Mark Lamb, Doug Smail, Darcy Loewen, Jamie Baker, Laurie Boschman, Andrew McBain, Norm Maciver, Chris Luongo, Tomas Jelinek, Marc Fortier, Mark Osiecki, Darren Rumble, Mike Peluso, Steve Weeks

Well yeah, if you overrate every single player on the roster and list them a tier or so above what they actually are, I could see them finishing top 3 with that lineup. In reality, even with a 1D and an upgrade on Perron, that's still a lottery team.
This team sucks so bad lol.
Have you seen what expansion teams have looked like in years past?
