Ok, NOW can we try to blow up the lines?

JVR-Matthews-Nylander
Hyman-Kadri-Brown
Marleau-Bozak-Marner
Martin-Gauthier-Komarov

Puts Marleau in a more sheltered offensive role where he's better suited to succeed.
Re-invents the shutdown unit which has really struggled lately.
Gives an extra offensive pop to Matthews, who hasn't played poorly lately exactly but clearly we all know there's another level he could be playing at.

I love the idea of JVR on the top line but I think I'd balance out the talent a little more. Something like:

JVR-Matthews-Brown
Hyman-Kadri-Marner
Marleau-Nylander-Kapanen
Leivo-Bozak-Komarov

Of course this means benching Martin and moving Nylander to centre, both unlikely to happen.
