Gonna take some time for prospects to become bonafide top 6 players.

If I changed the lines up it wouldn't be to spread the wealth or even the lines out, it would be an attempt to make the top three offensive players tougher to cover.
they just seem to have a heck of a time getting anything done against teams that
a) don't panic in their own zone
b) yield the line and the wall when Gaudreau breaks in
If they stand up that line seems to be reduced to Gaudreau carrying it through every one until he loses it.
Hasn't helped that Hudler has been less than stellar in the past few games.
