temporarily splitting the top line, if Backs is out, gives some balance to the top 6, plus they will still have PP time together
line juggling like this probably doesn't happen until a losing streak or run of bad hockey

Let’s take the conference lead Saturday and then pot 12 Sunday, and then switch the lines up.
Peters already pushes up Neal to play with JG a few times each period, mainly to get Neal going, but may as well keep that up. Chances are the bench may be short vs the Preds anyways, so just run with status quo with the top line setup.
