This is a big problem because the Oilers already have the better superstars between the 2 teams, so if they have formed a good second line too, then the Flames will need more from their bottom 6 to make up the difference.
Unfortunately though, the 3rd line has been an absolute black hole for offense in this playoffs.
Dube - Nothing in 9 games
Toffoli - unimpressive 5 on 5
Jarnkrok - 26 games as a Flame - 0 goals...wtf

Ya, not sure how Hyman looked like Jagr out there. Flames Team defense needs to really pick it up. When a Dman pinches a forward needs to cover, also this team cannot let anymore breakaways happen. We are getting burned.
As far as Jarnkrok, I was his biggest Cheerleader but the time for just being reliable is over, get a goal son. Doesnt matter if he offensively more effective on the wing, need to figure it out and pot one soon.
