Default For tonight...Conacher, Brunner or Schenn

In a shortened season, it seems it's even more important to have players go on hot streaks.

In that vein, who would you start tonight of these 3:

Brayden Schenn - Not getting as much ice time as Voracek, but is supposedly playing with Giroux. Has 1 assist in 2 games.

Conacher - Played with Stamkos and St. Louis and got 2 assists last game, but others have told me on this forum that Ryan Malone is playing on this line normally. 4 points in 2 games.

Brunner - No points yet, but he's getting lots of SOG and is playing with Zetts.

Here's why I ask: I haven't watched any of these teams play yet, so I don't have a feel for how solid the line combos are. I'm looking for input mostly from Flyers, Bolts, and Wings fans.

Thanks!

Schenn has been moved of giroux's line if that impacts your decision .... I think I would go with Brunner and Conacher.

I'd start Conacher (whether he plays with St Louis and Stamkos or not, he's firmly in the top 6), then Brunner (caught a bit of last night's game, and he looks good. Good situation), then Schenn (too many bodies in PHI. I don't see him solidifying quality ice-time this season).

Thanks for replying guys. I'll roll with Conacher for now.

Agree - of what I have seen so far, TBL coaching team seems to place a lot of faith on this kid. He is also getting some PP time

Brunner would be #2 on my list since a) He is on Zetts line b) ton of skill if his shootout goal on Bobrovsky yesterday is anything to go by

In days to come, the order may change but for the immediate future (the next 2 weeks at least), I would rank them -1) Conacher, 2) Brunner, 3) Schenn
