Pospisil - Frost - Sharangovich
Coleman - Zary - Coronato
Lomberg - Backlund - Klapka

I do still like the idea of a bash brothers line with Pospisil in the middle of Lomberg and Klapka so wouldn't mind if they kept Backlund in the top 9 but I think it could be important, in the long-term, to continue to develop both Frost and Zary into top 9 centers.
There will come a time when Backlund is shuffled down the lineup but his line has been money all season for this team. Just leave that line alone.
