I find this shocking, because:

1. There's someone on this site older than me; and,
2. You have lived such a sheltered life that 7 is the biggest douche. I am younger than you and I can think of at least 2 or 3 people I have known who are bigger douches than 7.

Wow you must have meet some real serious douches!

Once in a blue moon even douches do the right thing

So if I told you our top line will go the first round of the playoffs without scoring or giving up a goal, do you feel our chances are now better or worse to move on?
- keaner17



I guess it all depends on if the other 3 lines give up less goals and score more than the other teams 4 lines. Or am I missing something?

Nelly Line and JGPs line as well and this is of course if the first line doesn’t score. Gotta believe they will have their shat back by then


Typically the difference makers are the 3rd and 4th lines that pitch in in the playoffs.

And yet we went 1-1 in those games. Plus, let's not pretend that their not scoring was due to Leo on the top line. That matchup didn't happen. No one is saying the defense first mentality of the Isles system is a bad idea, it's the approach that a guy like Leo suddenly belongs on the top line because he brings balance that seems silly.

Oh I agree he shouldn't be there inthink he's a 4th line guy or press on but until trotz is comfortable with wally it looks like this is what we are gonna get

Have any of you guys noticed how sh!tty Komarov is on the first line? It just struck me how bad he is. Just wanted to throw this out there for your input. Thanks!

No, he's (in Tony the Tiger voice) grrrrrrrreat! So long as no one scores against them, they are a juggernaut of a first line!!!! This is what you want out of your first line....no goals for, no goals against. Just hold serve.

No worries, IF Leo isn’t in, never fear, Zajac will be in his place. He’s got great chemistry with Barzal and Eb. They won’t score, but more importantly they won’t get scored on either while being hemmed in their own end. 👍🏼👍🏼

Now that you mention it, I have noticed the 1st line's production has gone down. He may not be the best option to play with Barzal and Ebs. Excellent observation!
