I thought that series specifically all 5 players looked gassed and were unable to chase the puck and ended up in the net however it is a fair point too that our first line has been over matched every game, they are just not gelling or looking organized. Obvious they haven't had any practices together so I am not ready to be overly concerned.. yet. Would rather see Brower or Chaisson than Versteeg at this point.
