Line Combos: Official Lines Thread

[Blueshirts1994]

Forwards

Was just messing around with line combos and i thought this one might be good
1/ canadian line #1 Brassard-Richards-Nash
2/ american line Kreider-Stepan-Callahan
3/ scandinavian line Hagelin-Lindberg-Zuccarello
4/ canadian line #2 Pouliot-Moore-Dorsett
Boyle as 13th forward
Just an idea.

I have an idea on line names how about the Charmin line for mostly all 4 lines figuring we are as soft as Charmin up and down the lineup

Hey now, you're not a real fan if you criticize your own team

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Hey now, you're not a real fan if you criticize your own team

What? No one says that.

It's two extremes here 99% of the time, jeez guys.

I realize that one of the worst things in the world is to be an accused Devils fan but think that people were pulling your leg. Take the Coldplay CD out immediately, Traverse right around the corner!

 

[Kris Chreider]

Richards should play wing.

 

[Callafan24]

Richards should play wing.

You think Brad Richards is going to go into the dirty areas and win battles along the boards? He will be our second or third line center for one year and then he's gone.

I THINK THE RANGER WILL KICK ASS THIS YEAR CAN'T WAIT GO RANGER GO.

 

[Fitzy]

We have five pivots who range from decent to very solid on faceoffs. That's a good problem to have.

I think Boyle is the one who will be deployed on the wing. It will let him show a little more offense in a contract year.

 

[Ola]

I expect this early in the season:
Hagelin-Richards-Nash
Pouliot-Brass-Zucc
Kreider-Step-Callahan
Dorsett-Boyle-Pyatt

Then a few month in, it could get interesting.

Early in the season, Cally and Hags won't be playing, so you would have to slot in Pouliet, Kristo, and one of Miller/Lindberg/Fast (no, not all three).

Kristo will be 3rd line at worst, probably a regular 2nd liner on our team... period.

Pouliot will jump between 2nd and 3rd lines

Nash and Richards will remain on the 1st line

Step will be 2nd line center, without a doubt.

4th line looks good, I'm really hoping Pyatt gets dropped/traded/etc. He isn't productive enough for even 4th line duties, and though his board play is very good, that's all he is good for... He makes Boyle look like a superstar

 

[JohnC]

Shouldn't the Kristo expectations be tempered?

Hahaha

Ur cute.

Ya gotta admit that has a ring of objectivity and truth to it though! Still and all, 100 lashes for criticizing "our own team."

Out of curiosity, who are our pivots who rate as "very solid" on faceoffs?

 

[Thirty One]

I smell a semantic argument upcoming...

Boyle is quite good, he wasn't always, but has averaged about 53% the past two seasons.

Richards has been a 51% guy for awhile.

Moore has been good on draws as long as I can remember.

Stepan and Brassard looking at the numbers are not as good as I recall. about 45% each which is bad for a top 6 pivot. If you were to move someone to the wing, I think it would be one of them. Likely Brassard.

I don't see Brassard or even Boyle getting moved to wing. In so far as Stepan and Brassard go on faceoffs, somehow/someway they both have to get their numbers closer to 50%

Enjoy the rest of the summer!
