Not gonna be overcritical of Bannister on day one but I really don't like these lines. Buch-Thomas-Neighbours works well and allows Kyrou to be the primary puck carrier (if he'd get his head out of his rear) on the other scoring line. I've never liked Buch-Thomas-Kyrou. Even if it works, it leaves the other lines high and dry. Also nothing against Toropchenko but he's a 4th liner - been his profile ever since junior and he's good at it. Not sure why the Blues keep trying to juice him up on the 3rd line, especially when a guy like Alexandrov or Sunny fits the role a lot better imo. Defense is just gonna be bad no matter how you try to pair these guys up but Perunovich at least provides some offense versus Tucker who provides nothing (unless he's gonna drop the gloves).
