Kuzmenko-Kadri-Sharangovich
Huberdeau-Zary-Mantha
Coronato-Backlund-Coleman
Lomberg-Posposil-Klapka

Andersson-Bahl
Weegar-Bean
Miromanov-Pachal

Vladar
Wolf

Extras: Pelletier and Soloviov

These lines seem like the a decent way to make it so Coronato and Klapka both get regular spots on the roster. I agree Pelletier has not earned a spot on the roster in favour of guys like Honzek or Morton or even Hunt… but making him the extra forward that can cycle into games for either Klapka or Lomberg allows the flames to avoid losing him to waivers. Would love to see Honzek on the team of course but it would likely be even more beneficial for him to play top 6 minutes in the AHL until injuries/trades open up spots.

Similar story for Soloviov as it is for Pelletier. He can be the extra defenceman (and avoid losing him on waivers) while Brz and Gru get big minutes with the Wranglers.

I think Andersson, Pachal, Kuzmenko and Mantha could all be traded by the TDL. If no roster players come back in those trades, that’s 2 spots on defence and two top 6 forward spots that become available. Creating opportunities for Brz, Gru and Honzek if they keep playing well in the AHL.
