JVR - Coots - Jake
G - Hayes - TK
Lindblom - Patrick - ?
Raffl - Laughton - Pitlick
Was trying to think of best balance in the top 6 and I feel like this might be it. Teams top line would probably match the Coots line and I feel like that Hayes line can really thrive verse lesser competition. - ClaudeFather
I put out a hypothetical lineup as well with G with Hayes and Coots and Jake together (I had Lindblom at LW with Coots and Jakes tho) and I got roasted. I like the strategy of having pairs that you want to keep together and then adding the 3rd member of the line - I think G and Hayes could be dynamite together, and add in TK, could be a special line.
And just think, we'd have another line that would have first line scoring potential also that teams would have to deal with. Possibilities are endless. |

What about?
JVR - Coots - Jake
G - Hayes - TK
Lindblom - Patrick - Raffl
NAK - Laughton - Pitlick - bmoreflyer
Start with that, if NAK impresses move him up. |

G can play with anyone, Hayes is no bum and yea TK is always a threat. Our top 6 can be a real matchup problem for other teams. |

of course, flashes aren't enough in the end. But for only playing 2 seasons, one of which was hijacked by various injuries and he was unable to get into his typical off season training regimen which basically put him behind the 8 ball immediately, I think he did all he could do. Moving forward however, he needs to perform like the 2nd overall pick. I think the positive thing is that we know he will be paired with at least one talented winger, time will tell who the other winger is.
I wouldn't put it out of the realm of possibility however that he, by the end of the year, is the one driving play more so than whoever is on his line. I think this 3rd line is gonna be a pain in the ass for opponents as the season progresses to be honest. - sjk540
The injury excuse was valid for year one but not for both years. I'll settle for him just becoming a solid 50-60 point player. |

Coots is best used as our number 1 center, scoring 70+ points playing all situations, we don't have Mcdavid to unseat him as our #1 Center and it sure as hell will not be Patrick at the moment and he has a lot to prove to even get close. |

I just wish Patrick would stay exactly where he is playing with Scott Laughton and putting up 30 points a season. |

I think the idea was to have Laughton center the fourth, Patrick third. |

That might be the idea. It doesn’t mean things cannot change. It doesn’t mean Patrick can’t break out this season. |

Not sure why Pitlick seems be overlooked. When healthy the guy can play. His injury prone is a concern but when healthy he is better then the talented but green young-ins. He is better then NAK, Germ, and Vorobyev. This guy is in the Flyers starting 12 while healthy. For now anyways. The talent will pass him up but not in October. |

Even if he breaks out, i hope he does, still a long long way to go when talking about unseating Coots. |

If and when we contend again, I’m hoping Patrick surpasses Sean Couturier as an offensive threat and star. I think we’re a much better team when Coots is assigned to the opposing team’s best superstar and asked to shut them down. - SuperSchennBros
Futuristic lineup... current organizational forwards...this is tough to do. There are so many favorites coming up.
Lindblom - Patrick - TK
Farabee - Coots - G
Ratcliffe - Frost - Hayes
Laughton - Bunnaman - Sushko |

No love for Ruby? I like Cates in a bottom roll.
Fun look at and with so many possibilities. Like Hayes on a wing. Guessing Jake and JVR are traded. |

No he doesn’t. Patrick is already better then what Coots was after two seasons.
Let me ask you a few questions.
1. If we don’t have a Connor McDavid, why wouldn’t you want Patrick surpassing Couturier’s 76 points per season and become a star in this league?
2. Who is a better shutdown center on this team then Sean Couturier? Having Couturier shutdown opposing players, shouldn’t mean he cannot post points.
To piggyback on my second question, name five players as good or better then Sean Couturier at shutting down top stars in the NHL? Ever team has an offensive threat, which is what I think Nolan Patrick will become. Nobody is saying he will become this, this coming season but we all hope 32 points can become 40 or even 50 this coming season.
It’s just strange to me that you wouldn’t want Patrick to surpass Couturier, especially with Patrick only being 20 years of age, going on 21 next month. |

1) Of course i would want this, just no sign of it happening next season.
2) I agree, Sean is in the Kopitar/Bergeron neighborhood of shutdown guys but guess what, those guys are not in strictly shutdown roles. When up a goal Coots plays the teams top lines but if we are looking for scoring there is nothing wrong with getting Coots and his line against lower competition. Why wouldn't we want him to get good matchups, especially situationally? |

It sure would be nice if that were to happen sooner then later. Coots is a great player and his 2 way play is such a benefit for any team. If Patrick is good enough to take that 1C position in a couple years then this team is going to be hell to play.

1. How is there no signs of Patrick getting better this season? It’s not like he went from a 30 point rookie season to a 20 point rookie season. Like, what were you expecting? I think we all expect better but he didn’t get worse. He’s a kid.
2. When you say “he”, are you talking about Sean Couturier or Nolan Patrick? I’m not concerned with Sean Couturier’s match up situation at all. |

I tend to agree and hope that turns out to be correct. However at some point, flashes of it aren't enough. I have concerns about his usage and linemates and how that is going to effect his ability to produce well offensively. - MJL
Yeah, people seem to hang on flashes forever.
Consistency is the name of the game. |

Lol @ people who think NP will ever be anything close to Coots, much less surpass him on the depth chart.
(and that's not even a knock on NP, Coots is just ridiculously good) |
