We can talk about lines or pairings or individuals all you want but I think what this team needs most is just practices dedicated to 5v5 systems execution - breakouts, entries, and plugging up neutral ice. I don't think it's a coincidence none of our centers have been able to really get it going as that position is so dependant on tight system execution by others in order to get the open ice opportunity needed to create. Team has been freewheeling its systems so far this season.
