And don't even get me started on Montreal.

Their third line, behind the Drouin line and Danault line, has been the Plekanec-Gallagher combination. Not infrequently has Byron been on that line.

The Byron-Plekanec-Gallagher line has a combined 17 goals between them. Plekanec is 6th in ice time for forwards, Byron is 7th and Gallagher is 9th so it's not like it's entirely unfair to label them the bottom 6 either.

To argue that Montreal has received 10 goals from their bottom six is entirely inaccurate. Gallagher has scored 9 goals himself. Gallagher has played primarily with the third line center, is 9th in ice-time for forwards, 7th in ice-time on the PP. It's hard to argue that he hasn't been a third liner for Montreal this season in terms of actual assignment. In reality, Montreal has benefited from a very good bottom six. Their issue is the top six.
