"Joshua scored in consecutive games, Roy added three points over his past three contests, while McMann generated four points in his last two games. "They get the puck, and when they go down into the offensive zone, whether it is on an attack or they have to forecheck, they are heavy," Berube said of the Joshua-Roy-McMann line following Tuesday's win."
"Nick Robertson remained on the fourth line with Steven Lorentz and Scott Laughton. Laughton scored his first goal of the season against the Panthers, which was a complete effort from the line. Robertson sealed the wall against Panthers star defenceman Gustav Forsling, Lorentz fished the puck out and Laughton buried a key insurance goal, winning the team belt in the aftermath."
Matias Maccelli, Calle Jarnkrok and Dakota Mermis are likely scratches for the next game. Max Domi remains on the right wing with Auston Matthews and Matthew Knies on the top line. John Tavares centres Easton Cowan and William Nylander on the second line. Dakota Joshua, Nicolas Roy and Bobby McMann have produced scoring and strong possession over recent games, prompting praise for their heavy play and stick work in the offensive zone. Nick Robertson, Steven Lorentz and Scott Laughton form the fourth line, with Laughton scoring his first goal of the season. The listed defensive pairs remain intact.
