Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

1st line: The Sid & Jake show.. Rust can be a nice complementary piece and I think he can potentially be a 20-ish goal scorer on that line while providing excellent versatility and PK ability as wel..
2nd line: As much as Phil needs to play with Geno I think its mutually beneficial.. I think ZAR can blossom into a mini-Hornqvist and create havoc down low for those guys and open the ice up a bit.
3rd line: I think McCann may be an option for 2LW because of his speed and I wouldn't be opposed to swapping him and ZAR. Jugs most likely starts the year as 3C and feel like he could thrive in that role given a full training camp and familiarity. Tanev off WPG has great speed and 2 way play.
4th line: Bring back Hags for his excellent PK/2 way ability, familiarity in the system and cup experience. Don't anchor Malkin+Kessel with him, use him as depth (where he should be) I think Teddy has played well enough for a shot at 4C. Simons advanced analytics will keep him on the team.

1D: Dumo+Letang are in my opinion a fantastic #1 pairing.
2D: Pettersson really impressed me last year and I hope he can only grow more. Hes top 4 over Maatta in my books, with Schultz I believe this pair can play a great 2 way game.
3D: Maatta and Gudbranson... just keep the puck out of the net, be physical, tape to tape breakout passes, thats it. Keep it simple.
