Flames 2015 3on3 lines

[handgroen]

with the league going to 3 on 3 overtime for the full 5 minute overtime.
what lines do you think the flames will send over the boards?
each team will probably roll 3 lines of 3 players.

what's your guess for the flames?

we have an embarrassment of riches on the backend and i think we can afford to keep gio and brodie together on a 3 player line.

my guesses:
gio-brodie-hudler
hamilton-monahan-gaudreau
wideman-bennett-frolik/backlund

i think the flames stack up quite well, as far as 3 on 3 play, and it's going to be mighty important.

Gio-Monahan-Gaudreau

Byron might get a shot too

I don't see them going with 2 d-men very often. Probably roll through Gio, Brodie, and Hamilton on D; with Monahan-Gaudreau; Bennett-Hudler; and Backlund-Frolik up front.

Since we have some of the best 2 way defenders around I think it would be crazy not to have one of them on the ice.

Some combination of 2 of Johnny - Mony - Hudler - Bennett - Frolik maybe Bouma or Backlund

Paired with either Gio - Brodie or Hamilton.

Wtf. Why would any 3 on 3 include Bouma????

I think we'll see the Frolik's game is most effective 5 on 5 or PK. Would love to see a Byron-Bennett-Brodie OT line though. So much speed.

Hamilton-Monahan-Bennett

I know a lot of people are critical of the 3-3 overtime but I'm really excited about it especially after seeing some of the overtime action during the rookie tournament.

Hudler - Gaudreau - Giordano
Monahan - Bennett - Brodie
Backlund - Byron - Hamilton
