. . . I'm getting over it now

Back to hockey. . .

First line will get their 2-4 goals, but it will be key for lines 2 and 3 to stay even strength, or the Warriors will have a struggle at their hands

The 2nd line in Alex got dominated(-2, with little offensive chances). The 3rd line was a lot better that day(+2, several good chances). They needed to be switched up a little.

I think they are on the right track with the line changes, However, I'd like to see another slight change in them to generate a little more offense. Hopefully they can get them clicking, if they do it could be a dangerous team come playoff time.

That narrows it down to 3 and I'll bet it ain't the guy from Pequot :-k

You guys are clueless.

Yes, I think changes could be made to the lines to make them better, but i could be wrong. These may be the best 2nd and 3rd lines Brainerd can put together. I just have a tough time believing that when they have rarely scored in the first 3 games. It might just be the players that they have to choose from. Not a lot of talent with the puck on these lines, tough to get production out of both of them. Lucky to get it out of one. I'd put the top 3 guys with the puck together on 2nd line, and have the other 3 become a defensive specialist line.

Any other questions from the Brainerd "Brain Trust"?
