Something I've been thinking about for a while, and wanted to see some other peoples opinions on it.
I'm assuming Jagr will be ready to go for Thursday vs the Sharks, so where does he slot in? Having him on the fourth line does not seem like a good fit, and with the 3rd line playing so good, I don't see any point in breaking up that line.
What if we were to try Jagr with Backlund and Frolik, move Tkachuk up to the top line with Monahan, and Gaudreau, and then Ferland goes down to the 4th line with Lazar and Brouwer.

With the top line struggling lately, Tkachuk might be the boost to help get that line going,
I see Jagr as a good fit with Backlund and Frolik, and have a feeling there might be some good chemistry there, it also gives us a little bit more toughness and skill on that fourth line.

Thoughts ?

Your thinking with Jagr isn't wrong but he wouldn't do great with the increased defensive zone starts IMO
