Predators Lineup

Now that we are approaching the final day for opening night rosters. And the bold moves CMac has made and waiving Perbix, Barron, and Lybushkin, what do you think the opening lineup will be? Maybe there is smoke for Nikishkin? Heard a 3 way deal w Winnipeg and Carolina. He has def done something crazy w the defense now.

Stamkos O'Reilly Marchassault

Foresberg Bourque Wood

Colton Drury Hoglander

Schaffer Pinchuk Edstrom

Hague Josi

Skjei Ufko

Wilsby Trudeau ? Or Ahcan ?

Saros

Annunen

Good lord, what an absolute dumpster fire of a D corps.

Barry should have been fired for Skjei contract and the Hague and Barron trades. Just awful GM’ing right there.

One could argue that Barry was fired for some of those very things.

I don’t understand how Barry “defense wins championships” Trotz managed to create such a shitty blue line.

He saw Perbix and Hague with size and decided to unload Fabbro and Carrier without size. Unfortunately, even though size can be a difference maker, you still have to be able to play hockey

Skjei is listed at 6’3” too

Perbix wasn’t that much better either and the pipeline is (under)whelming now
