There was only one line that played worth a damn last night, and that was the Lomberg line. They were the only ones who played with any consistency. All the rest should be sent on a 40 mile hike into the wildness to see of they can find themselves. Just a craptastic effort all around, especially from Backlund and company. Their line may have got a goal early on, but after that they were complete trash and did nothing, especially after the goaltending change. To get absolutely punked by that Oilers lineup is something that should never happen. You can lay a lot of the loss on the Gilies but the lack of pride push back in some of the players is a little disturbing.
