I'm all for the number one line being more defensively responsible and learning how to play the two way game. I just think that they need to be given a few more offensive zone starts when Ward has the chance to make a line change. I honestly don't think they had one in the 2nd period or 3rd. The line only mustered up 3 shots between the three of them. Get that line buzzing and full of confidence against some of the upper echelon teams in the west, with the way the rest of the group is playing, they could make a run.
