For the record though, I still prefer the line up we saw today. If Lindholm needs to play on the RW for this team to be successful, then so be it.
I just don’t think a game against a weak D and goaltending is the acid test. And that line scored one goal on a giveaway IIRC. I’m fine with giving it a try. But against teams with two offensive lines like Toronto and Winnipeg, I’m pretty nervous. When Ryan comes back maybe that helps the depth.
