Hello all,

So it's been a big talking point this season that certain players were playing too much (Matheson, Montembault) but there was also talk about players performing better on a different role like Newhook (although one can argue his deployment was already one of a bottom sixer).

With the current roster what would be your optimal deployment for next year in terms of minutes played?

Suzuki
Slaf
Caufield
Evans
Demidov
Dach
Newhook
Laine
Gallagher
Anderson
Heineman
Dvo / his replacement

Matheson
Hutson
Struble
Xhekaj
Carrier
Reinbacher
Guhle

Montembeault
Dobes

For reference this is data for this year by quarters
