If something doesn't change pretty soon there's going to be a lot of the fanbase looking back wistfully on the halcyon days of when we had the best top line in the league.

On the contrary, last year's team may have been too dependent on the top line to do most of the scoring. When they disappeared against the Oilers, the team was done in. Regular season success means very little if you can't get the job down when it matters most.
