Steve Yzerman is back home and though the Detroit Red Wings are still the worst team in hockey, and likely will be again this coming season, there is a sense of hope that we have not had in quite a while.

One of the reasons for hope is that Yzerman seems to have a knack for finding talent and because of that, the future is bright.
In a piece recently published in The Athletic, Max Bultman (who is freaking amazing) projected what he thinks the Red Wings line combinations will be when the 2023-24 season rolls around.
As you can see, Bultman believes the starters will be the following:
LW Lucas Raymond
C Dylan Larkin
RW Filip Zadina
D Albert Johansson
D Moritz Seider
G Victor Brattström

Nation, do you think Bultman is on the money with his projections? What changes would you make?
