These lines have basically demonstrated that they cannot generate offence 5 on 5. Might as well try the blender and see what happens.

If what we saw in Montreal is what we see going forward, they had better try new combinations etc, agree.
But I wouldn't have said that after the two Toronto losses.
The puck wasn't going in, but they were playing quite well and generating more than the opposition.
