Swap Pelletier/Dube around to find chemistry, or mix in Ruzicka. Do not under any circumstances move Lucic up. In fact, sit Lucic and insert Duehr.

Very frustrating how resistant Sutter is to changing things when they are clearly not working.
If you look at the lineup on day one versus now, Sutter has made a ridiculous number of changes so I don't know how you'd say he's resistant to change? In fact, I would argue he's probably tried almost every combination aside from ones that include Pelletier since he's only been up for 6 games thus far.

About the only thing left now if the team can't get going, would be to split up the third line and see if you can get fire out of Mangiapane and/or Backlund with some of the top 6 guys.
