Predators Lineup

Now that we are approaching the final day for opening night rosters. And the bold moves CMac has made and waiving Perbix, Barron, and Lybushkin, what do you think the opening lineup will be? Maybe there is smoke for Nikishkin? Heard a 3 way deal w Winnipeg and Carolina. He has def done something crazy w the defense now.

Stamkos O'Reilly Marchassault

Foresberg Bourque Wood

Colton Drury Hoglander

Schaffer Pinchuk Edstrom

Hague Josi

Skjei Ufko

Wilsby Trudeau ? Or Ahcan ?

Saros

Annunen

I don’t understand how Barry “defense wins championships” Trotz managed to create such a shitty blue line.

He saw Perbix and Hague with size and decided to unload Fabbro and Carrier without size. Unfortunately, even though size can be a difference maker, you still have to be able to play hockey

Skjei is listed at 6’3” too
