Makes you worry about cohesion etc. Lines are clicking right now...unless you do something with the 4th line. 

 

Drury ya. TT could be dropped in on 1 with no ill effects in my opinion. He’d probably even boost Guenz shooting opportunities more so than the current makeup.

I think you need to leave Jarvy on the 1st line. They need some tenacity...Turbo isn't that!

Don’t discount turbo though. The guy is one of our best 2 way forwards, is a unrated passer plus a decent shot and is a heavier forecheck than Jarvis when he’s playing physical(his board puck control game is miles ahead of Jarvis still). That said I could see him slotting in the shutdown line against top teams though. 
 

Jarvis’s individual offensive ceiling is higher for sure, but he also plays a similar role to Guenz. That why I think allowing Guenz to play his normal role with TT doing setup is the best way to go against most teams.

Don't over think it have you seen how potent Jarvy and Guezt are together? All you need to see!

First clinches of the season can occur tonight, Florida and Boston are in the same boat as us where the caps need to beat the redwings and they need to win their respective games(for an 8th clinch). Rags just need to beat Philly or have the redwings lose. 

We need as posted above basically a win and either a red wings loss(8th clinch) or win and Philly loss in regulation(3rd in metro clinch).

      I hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.

      I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.
