There’s no arguing that the Nashville Predators have a very deep roster. The challenge is constructing the lines properly and putting players in the right place.
For the Predators, a lot of their recent success over the past few seasons can be credited to the JoFA line, or Viktor Arvidsson, Ryan Johansen and Filip Forsberg. When Matt Duchene was acquired over the offseason, this trio was broken up. It left a void on the top line.
The JoFA line was put back together last night against the Detroit Red Wings, and everything went great after a rocky first period.
