One problem with the first line is that they seem gun shy to shoot.
Last night they had 3 combined shot attempts at 5v5 (1 each).
There were times where they were in shooting positions and they are looking to make that extra pass to get the tap in goal.
I think just shooting more will be a cure to the first line's woes. Easiest way to get into the dirty areas is to take a shot and then have Monahan/Lindholm crash the net for a rebound.
