TB Palat

TOR
Johnsson with Matthews and nylander
Ketfoot centers third line.
Marner probably not signed by beginning of season, but if he does then mikheyev on his line.
Kapanen on third line, takes marner's spot with tavares if he doesn't sign.

Pit
McCann, Simon or ZAR

CAR
Svech on the top line. TT centers second line.

NYR buch

CHI saad

CGY
Tkachuk on top line. Lindholm centers second line.

VAN
Ferland on top line.

AZ
Schmaltz with Keller. Not on kessel's line.
Kessel with stepan.

SJ Kane

EDM Neal to start. Don't see that sticking for long, though.

[Eskimo Brother]

It'll be Gourde or Palat on the top like. Cirelli will be C3.

Toronto I expect Johnsson to play up with AM and WN. Tavares with Hyman and Marner when they're in the lineup, Kapanen and Mikheyev when not.

PIT McCann

CAR Teuvo

NYR Buch to start, Kakko by January

I think Toews and Kane get split up.
Toews Saad Caggiula
Strome DeBrincat Kane

CGY Lindholm

VAN Miller

ARZ Keller

SJ Labanc, but I think they have some line shuffling the first few weeks.

EDM Neal

As for others
-Hintz over Benn with Seguin/Radulov
-CLB should be Nyqvist, but I have no idea what the rest of their lineup is going to look like.
-Wheeler/Scheifele I think will actually have Ehlers with them instead of Connor, so Laine/Connor can get eachother going like they have in the past on the second line.
