Farabee - Pospisil - Klapka

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.

Yeah, I don't get the reluctance to do this either. No downside as guys can move up/down the lineup has the heat up/cool off.
Huska is a weird man. Old school energy line has never really worked for him when you look at advanced stats (and eye test most nights).
