I'm curious as to why. 2nd line is still working. It's undersized but it's working with good puck movement. In a similar way to how Minnesota's top line is working, with Matt Boldy being taller and heavier than Perfetti by contrast, but not sure how much heavier, seems like Perfetti is bigger this year.
Lowry is still the defensive leader of the team. I really like the change Arniel made, and AI seemed to indicate it could go forward. I like that line as a tough line to play against, and the Jets need that as part of their defensive identity. I'm not sure I like the idea of Lowry getting d-zone responsibility with those 2 wingers, or matching up against top lines, with Fetts and Ehlers. Would Namestnikov take more d-zone draws as a result, or would he would be put into offensive zone situations with defensive wingers? Definitely can't see him as being relied upon for d-zone draws.
