I agree that Lazar will be given a bigger chance to show what he can do. Janko taking Tkachuck's spot makes sense because they can still call it the 3M line. I think Tkachuck will spark Bennett to play better and Ferland will make both of them play with an edge. The last line is pretty much what's leftover, and it still has potential to be a decent line. On D the top 5 are set but I think a young guy will come in and steal a spot but will ultimately see an interchangeable 6-7 as they'll both see a lot of game time.
