What will our lines look like in the playoffs?

Do we go with the lineup that was the best in the league prior to injuries? :

Johan-Pav-Todd

Fil-Z-Huds

Miller-Helm-Cleary

Abby-Homer-Mursak/Nyqust

Lidstrom-White

Kronwall-Stuart

Ericsson-Quincey

In Babcock's latest line juggles we've seen (top 2 lines):

Z-Dats-Bert/Nyquist-Lids-Ericsson

Franzen-Filppula Hudler-Kronwall-Stuart

Will Babcock roll Zetterberg with Datsyuk while Filppula centers the 2nd line? Does Nyquist stay on the Datsyuk line?

Personally there would be two sets of lines that I would be interested in seeing. This is assuming helm being back.

Zetterberg- datsyuk- nyquist

Hudler- fil- Franzen

Cleary- helm- Bert

Miller- Abby- homer

Or

Zetterberg- datsyuk- homer

Bert- Fil- Franzen

Hudler- helm- nyquist

Miller- Abby- cleary

I like both those sets of lines. From what I saw from the eurotwins and nyquist together I was very impressed, but I also feel that with the second set of lines we have a very good third line that can score, and then our fourth line brings good energy. I feel the key to putting the twins together is how franzen plays. If he plays like playoff mule then I like the twins together

As i said in other threads, I think we need Pavel and Hank to be together simply because PAvel's wrist is not allowing him to take faceoffs and we need a centerman winning faceoffs in the playoffs and Franzen was winning ZERO lol.

Datsyuk- Zetterberg- Nyquist/ Bertuzzi

Franzen- Fil- Hudler

Cleary- Abdelkator- Nyquist/ Bertuzzi

4th line

I think I would rather Nyquist on the top line cuz he has great speed and I think adds a lot to that line... I think they could be lethal. Also, having Bert on the 3rd line would make a good checking line like we had last year against Phoenix in the playoffs.
