Default Create your competitive 2027/2028 new arena flames lineup

Try and make a realistic lineup for the flames for the season of the new arena that is competitive and makes the playofffs.
Since we suck right now, I'm trying to live in the future where we might be decent. See who can come up with the closest to the actual..

Current players that I think will likely be gone:
Kadri (gone in trade), Coleman (gone in trade), Andersson (gone in trade), Lomberg (moving on), Beecher waivers or whatever, Kirkland (ahl), Kerins (claimed on waivers), and I'm hoping Sharangovich is gone or replaced by some combination of a bunch of good trades.

My lineup:

1st line: Coronato - Frost - (2025 top 5 pick, Mckenna?)
2nd line: Huberdeau - Reschny - Zary
3rd line: Farabee - Backlund - Honzek
4th line: Klapka - Potter - Minor call up guy (Stromgren?)
Extras: Wyttenbach

Defense:
Weegar - Kuznetsov
Parekh - Bahl
Bru - Hanley
Extras: Pachal

Goalies:
Wolf
Cooley

It's a pretty young lineup, but might have a sneaky ton of skill with our young guys.. I'm being a little optimistic having Reschny and Potter in the lineup but I'm hoping they tear it up in the AHL next year.. I certainly can see Reschny as a rookie in the NHL in 2027.

This lineup would certainly more exciting than whatever we are watching now and could have a ton of potential for the future..
