I agree. Optimally we push Backlund and Frolik down. We want the third line to be getting the tough minutes and the second line to focus on scoring. Right now 3M is tasked with both and its a detriment to our offence. The third line isn't really effective in this role. In terms of line combos and who we would get I don't know. I think we should target a Second line RW at the least to push Frolik down if a first line RW is too expensive to bump Ferland down. I'm still not seeing Bennett on the first line though, I would probably dangle him in a package to get the help we need.
