Sharangovich Zary Farabee
Pospisil Frost Coleman
Lomberg Backlund Klapka

Would be nice if we could add another top 6 winger to this lineup. Gives us more punch and also would give Frost a little more skill to work with.
You might be right about Klapka. He would have to show more of what we saw against Buffalo.

I know it seems like Coronato should work with Huberdeau (a skilled shooter with a skilled playmaker) but I’m not so sure Coronato is the best fit with Kadri. Kadri tends to hold onto pucks a lot and wants to be the puck carrier - which is fine when playing with guys like Huberdeau/Posposil/Farabee because they aren’t known for that. Coronato seems to play better when he gets to carry the puck and setup plays with his speed. I think he might struggle to be as effective on a line with Kadri. Could be wrong though as they have not given them much time together.

I would like to Zary with Coronato because I think they are two of the most talented players on the team and I think they could really fit together. They look good when on the powerplay together.
