Lines are based on yesterday’s practice, especially PP2. I’ve not yet seen an update from this mornings skate.

Team lacks electricity. Only one I've really noticed is Leonard and he only played like 3 minutes in the 1st. Not sure about the 2nd. Anyway, pass out the cocaine at intermission Carbs. They need it. lol
