Here is how I would give things a shot with
Huberdeau-Kadri-Coronato. Ya sure let’s start with our 3 highest paid forwards together and see if it works
Farabee-Backlund-Coleman. I liked this line when they were together last year. I think with Farabee having a big contract and a lot to prove putting him with the safety blankets to start could be a good fit.
Zary-Frost-Sharangovich. 2 offensively creative forwards with a sniper could be a good fit matched up against other teams 3rd and 4th lines.

Probably a good guess to the lines. To be honest, I prefer Coronato playing with someone else instead of Kadri. I could be wrong but a I think Coronato’s goal scoring took a bit of a drop playing on a line with Kadri. Which I understand if I’m correct. Kadri tends to hog the puck a bit and prefers to be a shooter rather than setup plays so that might not complement a goal scorer like Coronato.
My preference would be something like this:
Huberdeau-Kadri-Posposil/Klapka
Zary-Frost-Coronato
Sharangovich-Backlund-Coleman
Farabee-Kirkland-Posposil/Klapka
I would rather Zary be getting a long look at center but I don’t think that’s going to happen. Would also like to see a vet traded because it feels like there is just not enough spots available. Hard for Farabee to have a bounce back year playing on the 4th line. Same thing with Posposil and it’s tough to see if Klapka can develop into an impact complementary middle six forward on the 4th line.
