What I don't understand is why Babcock is dressing 13 skaters. This gaurantees that lines will get mixed up every other shift and really doesn't make much sense. Another thing that I find baffling is why name guys like Morrow and Richards to the team if you aren't going to use them? If you look at the 2002 roster, it had success with guys like Maltby and Draper because it used these guys regularly and they were used to their strengths.
I get that Babcock is a superstar coach and all, and I'm just some dumb CP poster but if he refuses to use 4 lines and just lean on 6 guys, then this team really doesn't have a chance.
