What really confuses me and others I'm sure, is when you say (just for example) Higgins will be playing on the Lang line, then someone replies that Higgins is not a third line player because he scored 29 goals last year. Or if someone like Lats was moved to the Plekanec line, people would be complaining that Lats is not a first line player. Another one is when someone simply says, "Plekanec is not a first line center". I think we should just abolish the whole 1st, 2nd and 3rd label and call each line by the centermen's name. For example, "the Plekanec line played well tonight"; or, "I really like the Lang line". So let the revolution begin, from now on our lines should only be called the Pleks line, Koivu line and the Lang line.
Who's with me?

How many threads are needed to talk about this?
No shut-down line, No 3rd line, 3 scoring lines
it's all the same
