Anthony Travalgia: Danton Heinen off to a good start in right wing competition The Bruins have an opening on one of their top two right wings, Danton Heinen hopes to fill the role.

He's gonna be a good one.
Maybe the best of the bunch.

I'd bet Bjork is going to be starting the year with Bergeron and Marchand like he did last year.

I like option 2 personally. I'd like to see them try:

Marchand - Bergeron - Bjork
DeBrusk - Krejci - Pastrnak
Heinen - Donato - Backes
Acciari - Kuraly - Wagner/Nordstrom

I know there's going to be plenty of "pffftt no" to Dontao at C, but Donato played a little center last year and won 3/4 of his draws... but having Backes on his line, you could have Backes take some draws if you need to. Also I feel Heinen is solid defensively for a young guy, and Backes is a veteran with plenty of defense in his game.

I'd love to see Studnicka make the team, but JFK probably has the inside track for 3C having played AHL last year.

Marchand - Bergeron - Bjork
DeBrusk - Krejci - Pastrnak
Heinen - Donato - Backes
Acciari - Kuraly - Wagner/Nordstrom

I think this is spot on,
There is not must muscle in that top-9 but that's what I have to live with.
I do think that lineup above is what the Bruins Brass wants

Agreed!

The only change I could see is if Studnicka or JFK or Frederic outplay Bjork. In which case they get the 3C and Donato or Heinen are bumped to the top line.

They have a lot of kids that i could foresee outplaying Bjork. Should be interesting. So many kids with speed and talent in the farm. Its a beautiful thing. Going to be a tough decision

Sleeping on Bjork... there's a reason he started last year on the top line.
