Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how a year ago, we would've been desperate for a right winger and thrown him onto the top line? Today, we have two of the best lines in hockey that we don't want to disturb (thanks to Coleman/Mangiapane freeing up Tkachuk from driving the second line), and Ruzicka's somehow got a line with Trevor Lewis to not be the fourth line, so onto the fourth line he goes with a guy who is clearly not the same player today, but was still the #1C on the best team in the West three years ago.

We just got the top scorer from a team that went to the Stanley Cup finals and we're playing him on our fourth line. What an embarrassment of riches!
