Not so sure a Granlund/Sven pairing would work considering they're both prolific passers. Yes, Granlund can finish, but I'd like to see them separated.

I actually like both of them together, as they both seem to have that 'high' offensive IQ, and they both are really great at passing and shooting. I just think that line needs some jam, and hope that Ferland gets put on it when he is healthy. It seems like a perfectly complimentary line on paper anyways.
However, Gretzky and Hull looked like a perfect match as well, and chemistry does not work on paper alone. Street might indeed end up being a better match with Sven, and seems like a very good 200ft player to help Sven's development.
I wonder how much Ward is going to mix up the lines (though he has to especially with the injuries) and try to find new pairings again.
