Alright, we'll update this as we go, but as the roster stands right now, how do you use each player and what kind of lines do you want to see?
Gagne-Briere-Lupul
Hartnell-Richards-Downie
Upshall-Carter-Knuble/Giroux
Cote-Metropolit-Asham
I think Upshall drops down to the 4th line at points during the season, and Cote doesn't play every game obviously. I still see Knuble possibly be trade bait, but not until we see Hartnell really start to be the go to guy in front of the net on the PP. Until then, I'm perfectly fine with Knuble's $2.8 million being used as a PP specialist.
Timonen-Coburn
Jones-Eminger
Vaananen-Parent
Kukkonen
I realize Hatcher's on the roster, but he's gonna be on IR for most of, if not all of, the year.
Biron
Niittymaki
I want to see Nitty get more playing time than he did last year. The kid is a player, and I think he still has the stuff to take over as our starter in the coming years, but he needs more playing time to develop and get back into the groove we saw him in 3 years ago.
