I think the Hanifin - Andersson pairing seems like a shadow of what it was last year. That's why I really want us to try a top 4 of:
Weegar - Andersson
Hanifin - Tanev
As for the forward lines I'm running out of ideas. As many have mentioned Mangiapane - Backlund - Coleman is a combination that worked both last year and this year. Also, Toffoli and Dube have chemistry, that's why I vote for Huberdeau - Kadri - Lindholm as a first line, with the hope that all 3 players see 18 or more minutes a game in all situations. That leaves Dube - Ruzicka - Toffoli as a capable 3rd line that did well last year.
PS: The 5 players I want to see on the ice when we need a goal are:
Huberdeau - Kadri - Lindholm
Weegar - Andersson
