So tired of watching Bednar run the top line into the ice, while he constructs a second line doomed to failure.

Drouin - MacK - Parsnip/Nuke
Lehkonen - Necas - Mitts

Spread the wealth around. Parsnip can be the big body on Nate's line, dude will light it up. We have to try Necas as a 2C, that could lead to a Mitts trade for a better winger.

One line wins regular season games Two lines wins Cups.

And FFS get Malnski a good partner so he's not dragged down by dreck.

Yeah I thought he played well last night alongside the other Sam.

Necas isn’t a center in the NHL. Just because he was one at some point doesn’t mean he is now.

Nope, he's not. But if he can play the position for a game or two and get a little more juice going, shouldn't we be willing to at least try it here.

Same with Drury. I mean... he's definitely a center, but he's not a 2C. However, we should be trying him like hell there as well to see if he can do the job for a bit.

Mitts is drowning and is pulling his linemates down with him. I do not know what his problem is (is he hiding an injury? did his mind leak out of his ear one night while sleeping?) but we can't continue to wait for him to figure out in the 2C spot.

We can either continue to struggle with him as 2C, or we can see if the struggle is a bit less with someone else pitching in for the time being. Neither Necas or Drury should be considered a long term solution for 2C, but if either can get that line to do more than it currently is, we should be all for it.

They could see if Necas can elevate Mitts like he did KK. That at the very least needs to be tried.

I'll admit, the thought of Nuke - Mack and Necas together on the ice is fun tho.
