4th line that’s more than good enough is getting crushed.
3rd line is doing a little better but still awful.
2nd line also getting run over.
1st line is good.
I’ve been saying it for years- Hopkins is not a centre or a quality 5v5 player. He is a complimentary winger who can play special teams.

Don’t mind it short term when the team is struggling. Knobloch so far hasn’t kept them together for long which I like.
It’s fine for stretches in periods, but that’s it. This team NEEDS to find at the very least a middle 6 center that can drive the play.

Too bad nuge has never elevated himself to being able run his own line. That actually allows you to put your two stars together for stretches like Toronto does
He hasn’t grown since his first year. Hasn’t gotten stronger, faster, better at face offs.

Yeah I disagree they can play some games. So far he’s never kept them together for more than 2-3 games which is fine. Long term it’s clear he likes to keep them apart.
