IMO here's what needs to happen.

1) Shake up the D pairings. Right now the only D playing a decenf gap are Brodie, Hamonic, and Andersson so I would start with

Giordano-Andersson
Brodie-Hamonic
Hanifin-Kylington/Valimaki (i trust Kylington's speed more though)

2) Completely revamp the forward group. No line stays intact. Something like

Gaudreau-Backlund-Bennett
Tkachuk-Lindholm-Mangiapane
Monahan-Ryan-Czarnik
Frolik-Dube-Neal/Jankowski

3) show everyone all the tape of every single breakdown. The fixes are not about who is in the ice they are about trusting your teammates and your goaltender. They're about tying up sticks and playing aggressively.
