We have our all american top line, if you thought matthews was playing with edge through the playoffs wait to see what he does with these two rialling him up on either wing.

Next up we have our hard forechecking line, each one of these guys can burn you but they'll be looking for Robertson In the slot a lot.

Our third line is all russian, if that can't jump start galchenyuk nothing can, this line you are taking a risk with but our 4th line has 3 guys that can play centre, so if we have to drop galchenyuk to the fourth line we can.

Our D pairings are interesting, I have enjoyed Clifton's style of play this far in these playoffs, I think he would fit nicely beside Reilly. Unfortunately we still leave muzzin and holl as our shut down pair. Last up we have 3 guys battling it out for the bottom pair.

In net we just hope columbus or the pens will give us a fresh look back there. while getting a 2Lhd, a 3c and/or a 2rw. Most teams kap will play second line rw. I really wanted to keep kap in this build but I think he's our best shot at getting a starter from someone.


Figure I should post something aside from trading for those trash jets anyways.

Lehner would fill your goalie spot imo.

Galchenyuk was born in madison wisconsin. his origins are belarussian

By your theory maybe leafs should grab yakupov . maybe that can jumpstart any russian.
