First, Connolly or Chaisson would have been better options on the RW of the 1st line than DSP.
Second, you could easily put Oshie on the top line and place Vrana or Gersich on the second line if them being a liability is a concern. Both Backstrom and Stephenson are defensively responsible and Oshie creates space.
The fact is there were so many options that would have been better than DSP on the top line. If you're going to handicap a line, don't handicap the top line because neither Ovi or Kuzy are going to change their game and you're just going to be left with one forward that can't keep up.

I felt that the less we messed with the 2nd and 3rd lines the better. We played pretty well in Game 4 for much of the game. The god damn refs were screwing us with missed calls, and that call on Oshie was total bullshit. Oshie did not trip anyone. It was another diving performance by the Penguins. until the league hemmers the fuck out of players that dive the Penguins especially are going to use diving to give refs an opportunity to make shit calls. There were son many missed embellishment calls in this game. i don't know how a grown man can have any self-respect when he does that shit.
Did I say this already? I'm having a deja vu.

Lol you guys are all over DSP. He has played well in the playoffs, he is just lacking on skill and no Connolly or Chaisson wouldn't be better in that line. Connolly is another weak defensive player. Chaisson is closer to DSP. He doesn't have a lot of skill either but he isn't playing as well as DSP.
And guys please stop it with Vrana and Gresich. Vrana is totally clueless out there. Terrible with and without the puck. He shows the odd flash and people think we have something. And Gersich just isn't ready. You can see that in the limited time he has played.

Regardless, we should score more than one.
