Certainly saw some interesting points in the last page there, but I still like the new top line too much to break it up and I doubt Darryl will want to break them up either seeing as goal scoring has been the absolute bane of his season. This is the best Tkachuk has looked all season and I think they’ll continue to do produce with his new linemates.
In my mind, this team just needs the second line to be a bigger scoring threat because they’ve got the defensive side down. If the new second line can include Eichel, then great, but what if he only plays 20 games and we miss the playoffs again? I’m not sure I like the idea of pinning all my hopes on an injury prone Jack Eichel as my lone scoring line.
