It was mostly Robertson but in the third period when it was still 3-0 ZAR was moved up with Marner/Tavares. I am guessing for more of a defensive look to help secure the win. But it actually looked good for the short time it lasted. Could be worth doing on defensive zone draws for that line then once it hits the offensive zone doing a ZAR for Robertson line change, when able obviously..

I remember at least in the 3rd (maybe the 2nd also) ZAR got some shifts up there also and looked pretty good. I'm fine with Robertson staying on the 2nd line, but if Keefe is going to switch him out with someone during the game for some shifts, I'd much rather it be ZAR then Kerfoot.
Between injuries and line shifting, I think Keefe just looking to see what options he has.
Post TDL, I think lines should be as follows:
Bunting, Matthews, Nylander - looking good
Jarnkrok, JR, Marner - looked good b4 injury, & really doesn’t matter who plays LW given How good Marner (& JT) are
Kerf, 3C, Engvall - need to make trade, high acquisition cost, for impact 3C (O’Reilly, Horvat, Toews); we need another matchup line with some scoring threat
ZAR, Kampf, 4W- need to make trade, low acquisition cost, for heavy 4th line winger (Hathaway, McCaron); matchup forecheck cycle line
