Is what I would do. Why not give it a shot? That first line played well in intrasquad, that fourth line played well in the playoffs, and Leivo gets another shot to prove he could be an alright secondary scorer. If not, you can adjust
Until we have three guys you absolutely can't break up and are arguably the top line we shouldn't be using the word deep anywhere near this team yet.

Dube or Mangiapane might be that third guy, to Tkachuk and Lindholm who I put as #1 and #2 right now.

Leivo and Simon may just turn out to be guys who get some time here and amount to nothing for us, leaving us looking for replacements sooner or later.
