Most teams have two scoring lines and a checking line and a fourth line. The Flames have a scoring line and a checking line that scores, that's a good thing, not a bad thing. The issue is the third line and finding some depth scoring.

That is what it is.... Can you win on a regular basis with a line that has 2 of the long term core players (13M) that isn't even the best line on the team?
I want the #1 line Gaudreau/Monahan to cause panic for the other team on a majority of their shifts.... think Sedin line .
When they came on against the Flames I was just hoping the Flames made it through their shift.
The Canucks never asked the Sedins to carry a Ferland around with them on a regular basis. Now that they are 4th line players they get Virtanen.
