totally disagree with that line of thinking. the alfie, spezza, heatley line didnt have a real mucker there, the heatley, thornton, marleau line...I dont know if you would consider Ron Francis a mucker...but the Francis - Lemieux - Jagr line had ridiculous skill.

as long as you have Henrik between the pipes, and Staal-Girardi out there with a top line of Wolski - Richards - Gaborik there is no frikkin way in hell it will be a 1-2 ratio for that 6 some....frankly it could easily be a 3-1 ratio in our favor...if not more. theyll posses the puck, and we have one of the top 3 goalies in the universe, a damn good shut down top pairing defense that probably is one of the top 5 in the league in terms of shutting down other top lines...

im not worried about that at all...
