Here’s a look at the lineup they rolled out for morning skate:

* 1st line: Taylor Hall – Connor Bedard – Taylor Raddysh
* 2nd line: Tyler Johnson – Lukas Reichel – Andreas Athanasiou
* 3rd line: Nick Foligno – Jason Dickinson – Corey Perry
* 4th line: Boris Katchouk – Ryan Donato – Reese Johnson

​

* 1st pairing: Kevin Korchinski – Seth Jones
* 2nd pairing: Alex Vlasic – Connor Murphy
* 3rd pairing: Jarred Tinordi – Wyatt Kaiser

​

* Extras: MacKenzie Entwistle and Nikita Zaitsev

Bedard and Hall remain together, but Raddysh is now the right winger on that first line instead of Donato, who is now centering the fourth line.
