I couldn't be happier with this game. The bottom 6 is so good compared to any group in recent memory. When was the last time our bottom 6 carried the team like that?
I fully agree. I was very much in the camp of spreading the core four across the three lines and a fourth line that didn't get much ice time.
That really should not be the plan if we can have a fourth line like this most nights. Maybe we still spread out the big three and trim a bit top nine time? Maybe lean on whichever two are going on a given night? Competition is a good thing and it might be the best way to use our depth as an advantage, and we do have depth.
What do we do when Dewar and Jarnkrok are back? I think we might see a lot confusing transactions to continue the cap gymnastics and they try to run four of five million "over the cap all year"? It's a good way to not spend assets of depth rentals.
I do think we could move some or all of Kampf, Jarnkrok and Liljegren and not miss too much depth as long as we stay reasonably healthy.
It's a good team.
