Personally I would like to see the TML grab some grit, Kerfoot is expendable to me and we need to jettison Vesey ASAP.

Ideal target, Bennett but not at the expense of high end picks or prospects. Ideally Kerfoot going the other way. I think Galchenyuk with JT and Marner would allow him to flourish offensive while covering up his defensive shortcomings.

Thorton AM Nylander
Galchenyuk JT Marner
Hyman Bennett Mikheyev-this line against others top line would be amazing!!
Engvall Spezza Simmonds
Boyd/Barabanov

Rielly Brodie
Muzzin Holl
Dermott Bogo
Lehtonen

Andersen
Campbell

 

[zeke]

Bennett both sucks and can't play center.

 

[Nylander88]

At full health:

Thornton-Matthews-Marner
Nylander-Tavares-Simmonds
Mikheyev-Kerfoot-Hyman
Engvall-Boyd-Spezza
Rielly-Brodie
Muzzin-Holl
Dermott-Bogosian

Top line just works.
Second unit looked better with Simmonds in a short sample before it went down.
Third line offers speed and responsibility, important come playoffs
Fourth line can hold its on in most situations
