I don't know if Rooney fixes that (likely doesn't), but they'll make changes if they keep getting filled in like that.
Lomberg stays.
Is it Kirkland? Is it Klapka? The two of them together without Coronato?
Guessing Pelletier might get a look soon. He has the 30 day window to go up and down.

interestingly, at least early in the game (lots changed as the game went on including some benchings and shuffling) the Flames seemed to be actively putting the Kirkland line out against the Crosby line- at first I thought maybe it was just bad luck on some icings, but no there were a few occasions where it was their choice and they went with it. For sure they wanted Andersson/Bahl as the main matchup but was surprised to see the 4th line get the call- that also didn't go well per the fancy stats and the eye test but then Crosby can do that to you
