I still feel Vanek needs to get top 6. Problem is, your 3rd line will consist of Sheahan and Helm. Not the most offensive minded line mates. So putting any offensively minded shooter (Vanek, Nyquist, Tatar) would seriously hinder their output. IMO those two should be 4th line with Glendening, eliminating the need for Miller and or Ott. I could enjoy a bottom 6 of:
Nyquist - AA - Mantha
Sheahan- Glendening - Helm
Not that I'm a Helm fan all of a sudden, but he's here, signed and at that price needs to play and earn his salary.
Top 6:
Tatar - Nielsen - Vanek
Zetterberg - Larkin - Abby
Jurco and Pulkkinen can be dealt with when they're healthy. If Frk impresses in camp, I'd send Miller to GR and keep Frk and Ott up.
