Really not sure what the purpose of that 3rd line and 4th line is supposed to be. If you put swap Robertson with Holmberg, it gets more clear. You can than use the 3rd line as a secondary scoring line with the 4th line being an energy line who can take on somewhat tough mins.
Not sure why Jankrok isn't playing. He should be in the lineup
 
man i hate that third line, it's so bland

i'd go woll for this one, alternate goalies for a little bit

it would be nice to outplay a team for once

Hopefully Tanev returns soon. That Benoit - Myers pairing was pretty hard to watch…

3rd and 4th lines are questionable. There is really no identity to either line. Robertson on the fourth line is pretty useless.

Surprised to see Jarnkrok sitting out again, I wonder if they’re trying to ease him back into the lineup?

Holmberg should be the one sitting.

Robertson-Laughton-Domi
Lorentz-Kampf-Jarnkrok

Should be the bottom six. I get that Jarnkrok is still working his way back from injury but he’s still a better option than Holmberg.
 

Can't stand these lines.

Tavares-Nylander doesn't work well.

Laughton - Domi is a recipe for disaster.

Matthews-Marner need to be seperated to give the team more balance.

It's so frustrating that year after year, this team just can't find the right chemistry and we're messing around so close to the playoffs.

It's not surprising we're on a losing streak. The lines are the worst possible combinations and it's obvious to everyone but the coach.

Perhaps early season looks clouded judgement?

Is Lorentz really a full time player on a good team?
Just asking ...

Don’t like the lines. Want to find a place for Jarnkrok. He needs to get up to speed.

not sure what on earth to do with Domi… what a mistake that was.

Apparently Matthews and marner are playmakers this year so doesn’t it make sense separating the two snipers on the second line as well as the two playmakers on the first ?
 
Hes playing with slow boot jt you want him offside on every play?
Between JT and Holmberg, neither can carry the puck in the neutral zone or gain the line. JT is too slow to forecheck on a dump in and Holmberg is a 4th liner at best. Hopefully McMann will help with the speed issue on that line.

People wondered why I didn't give Treliving an A for the TDL. It's for this reason, we really needed a 2nd line winger that can contribute some goals.
We have one bobby mcmann might have another one in Robertson all he needs is the same confidence chief instilled in holmberg
 
2LW not addressed at the deadline by PizzaMan GM

Leads to McMann in top 6 situations
There's nothing wrong with McMann in the top six, he's shown he can hang with the big boys and he brings a strong power element to his lines. The problem is the LW behind him are nothing special. None of Domi, Holmberg, or Robertson particularly fit well on line 3.

I think Robertson is your best bet

McMann is a good 3LW

If hes at 2LW we have a weaker bottom 6.

We had the assets for a good 2LW but didnt make a move for some reason
