The first line has pretty much been one of the biggest problems so far this season.
Generating very little offense, have been poor defensively, and to make it worse other teams are matching their top lines against them on the road knowing they aren't great in their own zone.
Pretty sure they have been on the ice for 1 goal for and 5 goals against at even strength through the 3 games.
Gaudreau and Monahan need to shake off the rust because this team is in trouble when they are getting out played every game.
