I'd like to see certain combinations of players together Saturday with Cervenka in the lineup.
Tanguay & Iginla
- They have always played pretty well together, no point in separating them. With Glencross's play so far I would like to keep that line together despite their failures in the circle.
Backlund & Baertschi
- They seem to have some early chemistry so I would like to try and see what comes of that, they are creating chances but just haven't buried anything yet. However I think Cammalleri has been a liability in the defensive zone so I would prefer to see a more defensively responsible player fill out the line, for the time being my choice would be Stempniak.
Cammalleri & Stajan
- They played well together at the end of last year and their strengths really compliment each other as one is a playmaker defensively reliable and the other is a shooter that likes to take some chances offensively. For now I would put them with Hudler and see how it goes.
by default that would leave a combination of Cervenka, Horak, Comeau, Jones & Begin (if healthy) for the final line, keep in mind I am suggesting this for Saturday's game only so Cervenka can ease into the lineup slowly by playing on the 4th line and on the PP.
