I'm dumb. I need more explanation.

And I know the original post is in jest but that is why it isn't a good name. Add up the numbers 11/12/77

The "Temporary" Line

The Gaborik - Kopitar - Carter line should be known as 'The Century Line'.

How about the, "Carter still doesn't work well with Kopitar no matter how many times it's tried" line?

Why break up those two lines?

 

[ziggyfan]

imo, Brown should be with Kopi

I definitely got the feeling something is not right with Carter. Some real glaring puck-mishandling going on, timing seems off too.

I think he still looks good out there - it's just the ebbs and flows of a long season.

I agree that Carter and Kopitar aren't a good fit on the same line. Ultimately, I think that 70s line will be back together in the playoffs, but it's good that Sutter mixes it up to see what kind of combinations work and the ones that don't.

Ah..ok. I see it now.

I think Sutter also knows that it throws other teams' plans off too. They're expecting a certain line, and they end up matching against someone else.
