I'm a big believer in stacking your elite players, and I'd love to see Svechnikov and Aho. I can't believe a coach could have that as an option and not try it. It's not like Dzingle-Staal-Neiderreiter wouldn't be an acceptable second line either.

They went full Svech-Aho-Teravainen for a few games last season and it looked great, but I think they're trying to keep guys with similar footspeed together, because the 3rd line thus far is Foegele-Haula-Necas.
Dzingel and Aho play at a similar pace, as does Svech and Teravainen, but Nino and Staal are a half step slower and some of what Dzingel does is probably wasted if he's playing with those two.
