Thread: How I want the lines
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OllieFilms</b></div><div>Yeah but, we haven't been scoring as much and we need that good depth scoring that we had at the beginning of the year and Erod was a big part of that. But yeah, I don't know if he will come back next year, but we have him, might as well use him.</div></div>

did you ever think that his production was never sustainable? He's 28 he's never had production at that pace. Why assume it would just continue?
Much like McCann's production was never sustainable. He'd be one fire and then nothing for 40 games. But people swore by him in on these boards. But what was really happening on the ice did not match their views.
The biggest problem this team has right now is that they lost blueger. They don't have their 4th line to switch momentum because they lost a really good bottom 6 center who's really good at flipping the ice and generating something out of it. This is why the bottom 6 looks out of whack right now. They don't have a line out there for 15+ a night tilting the ice in the right direction right now. So of course the secondary scoring isn't going to be there.
That has been a huge problem. Boyle isn't the guy to fix that. There is a reason that line gets so much ice time.
