The blender is starting to bug me a bit. If they line up in duos, after preseason and what we have seen so far, there seems to be chemistry with the following.
Backlund Frolik
Gaudreau Bennett
Tkachuk Monahan
Stajan Brouwer
I would like to see an entire game of these, and then plug and play the others as needed.
The staff seems to resist breaking up the first two lines, but we have seen that this configuration makes three threatening lines, and uses our depth to better advantage.
Seeing these together for only a few minutes per game, is a little frustrating. I enjoy not worrying about a certain ineffective line being on the ice. The 'oh no' effect.
The one we didn't see last night was Tkachuk Monahan, which I liked a lot in presseason, when we got it.
Is there something about versteeg Bennett, that I'm not seeing the advantage of that others are?
