Nothing earth shattering here. Win four games in a row, insert a guy who was injured:
Nate Thompson taking fourth-line rushes with Emerson Etem and Tim Jackman. Yeah, he's in for Game 1.

BB said there was no doubt that Thompson would be back in whenever he was ready. Called him a key player for Ducks all season.

Same lines as Game 6 via @Fan960Wills Gaudreau-Monahan-Hudler Bennett-Backlund-Colborne Ferland-Stajan-Jones Bollig-Jooris-Shore #CGYvsANA

And that was corrected to note that Drew Shore is actually in for Mason Raymond on the fourth line.
In that case, he’d draw in for Mason Raymond on the Bollig/Jooris line.
