I think Zary with Backlund and Coleman could work. He's a smart hockey player and as Sutter said, Coleman and Backlund play the game the right way. That line has a defensive responsibility but with Kadri around it won't be as heavy. It could work.

I could see Pelletier in the role as well. He hasn't flashed offensively but his positioning and play away from the puck is very good. That could be a good shutdown line.

But knowing Sutter I think Eakin gets that spot. He likes his gritty vets and he wouldn't't be terrible on that line either.
