change the minutes per line, sometimes set the 4th line to zero and just go with 3 lines
occasionally make an early goalie change
in the "Tactics" screen generally make things more or less offensive, I tend to do these at the global level and sometimes at the unit (ie individual lines) level (but see caveat below). I seldom change individual player characteristics.
You need to be a wee bit careful with some of these in-game changes cos there are a few glitches which need to be ironed out. When moving players between lines just dragging them onto a new line doesnt work properly - you need to explicitly select them from the player list on the left. Also, seems like when you make a change to one line (Unit) in the "Tactics" that change is applied to all lines - not sure but I think that's what happens.
Hope these ideas help. By the way, what sort of things do you do ?
Cheers

I take a similar approach, but chemistry is a thing this year and it does improve as the season goes along, so if a line or players have good chemistry then I try to keep those players together.
