Guhle-mailloux
Matheson-Barron
Harris/Xhekaj-Hutson

I want an active D on each line..it's why Barron is with Matheson instead of Hutson... I also think the even strength ice time will be spread more even with this lineup

On the PP

Matheson-Mailloux
Xhekaj-Hutson

No more forwards on the point

I see Matheson as Petry light - great skater but not great offensive instinct and prone to defensive errors and needless turnovers in his own end.

And Barron, I was keen on last year before he got hurt. Since being called up this year I haven't been overly impressed despite some rave reviews by Engels and Co. I'm still not sold on him being top 4. in fact, I see Xman's TOI being higher than Barron as we go forward.

Xhekaj will have higher toi because hell get special teams time... but can he play the right side and be on the 2nd pairing.

I also like Xhekaj with Hutson as a deterrent against 🤡 🤡 like tkajerk
