This team defaulted to the lines they did and won nothing. Why did they keep trying? Why didn’t they try and develop better lines?
Stupid short term thinking that didn’t help them win in the short term or the long term.

Well, if you’re in Gulutzan’s position and your sole objective is to make the playoffs or you’re fired, you kind of don’t have the option to “try” things out. You go with what works and at the time, Tkachuk-Backlund and Gaudreau-Monahan worked. I don’t blame Gulutzan for sticking with those pairs because it ended up getting them to the dance in the end.
