Or they deploy the 4th line in a way that makes way more sense for how this roster is constructed.

Lomberg is 13th forward, Kirkland should be in the AHL.

Huberdeau - Kadri - Coronato
Gridin - Frost - Sharangovich
Zary - Backlund - Coleman
Farabee - Pospisil - Klapka
Lomberg

That actually feels like how this team should be deployed in an ideal state the wingers could flip around, and maybe Honzek and Gridin eventually flip between AHL and NHL or maybe you open a spot for Kerins somewhere

But those 13 forwards+ Kerins + Honzek + Suniev + Stromgren seem to be the best forwards in this org right now and should be deployed that way. Honestly guys like Kirkland or Hunt are career journeman that have no place on this team. They aren't part of the future, and they aren't good enough to be blocking a younger player with more upside now.
