Lines on Friday

how can you want Boqvist out after last night? He was a monster, creating with his hands, feet, and passing all night.

Holtz on the bottom line is useless. Zetturland's heavy play is suited much more for the 4th line.
I think they are in a weird spot. They have depth which aloud them to win in Car. But also they need some more heaviness to them. I think if they make the playoffs this will become very apparent. Next year Haula is gone, I think Tatar too. I think All of your scratches are used for a trade for a power forward. I think Blackwood is moved or allowed to walk.

I agree heavily on Holtz. He's setup to fail on that 4th line. He doesn't play anything like the other two. I too would much rather see Zetterlund on the 4th line and Holtz on the 1st and let him either prove to be a thing or a bust, but don't just walk him into being a bust by expecting a big time shooter to be a two-way guy on a counter attack fourth line...

As much as I did not like Zacha, the 3C spot is the most crucial to me to become a deeper group and get that line going (that being if you consider any McLeod line the 4th). I just am not confident in Haula enough to be satisfied, but I don't know if Mercer is a 3C as much as love his grind. We have been relying on Boqvist there and it's be disappointing UNTIL last night.

Have you ever heard the phrase even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then

Exactly right with boqvist the point is we need a 3rd line center who can be consistent last night was the only night so far I thought boqvist was good. He needs to be replaced. I feel like Zetterlund can produce when he is given more time and I feel like that top line of Zetterlund Hischier and Tatar was good but I would have Zetterlund on either the 3rd or 1st line when Bastian is back and take boqvist and holtz out.
