Wheeler appears to have either lost a step or be starting slow - he needs a kick, and perhaps that comes with a change of scenery. With only 4 right handed shots in the lineup and a lack of chemistry of late between 26 and 55, lets break them up.

The new first line promotes Ehlers, who has arguably been the best player on the Jets thus far, and gives him more ice time.

The second line works to introduce Dubois with Wheeler and also promotes Copp to a higher ice time role. This could be the making of a perfect two-way line. A true playoff style line.

The third line becomes interesting, as well. Lowry gets to play with Stastny and Appleton, so offense can produce, and defence will be a premium. A great shut down line that can chip in.

The fourth line (assuming everyone is healthy) could be a mix, and this is just one possible iteration.

What do the Jets need in order to make this deep forward group able to carry the Jets on a run? Is a top D still a necessity, and would it justify trading a pick and a top prospect if the right player is on the table?
