They’ve had three lines that worked well:
Gaudreau-Monahan-Lindholm
Tkachuck-Backlund-Mangiapane
Dube-Bennett-Lucic
There is definitely an improvement on all three defense pairings with Tanev and Valimaki.
There is a bona fide starter goalie.
Why the F is Ward screwing around with the above three lines? He can use a whole bunch of plugs on the 4th line - Simon, Leivo, Robinson etc. So frustrating to watch...
