They don't have an top-level offensive talent to anchor the first line but the combination an elite two-way center in Plekanec and two high end two-way defensemen in Markov and Subban plus good offensive depth blunts the need for that.
The negative over-reactions here have been completely over the top. Too much results-based rather than process-based thinking.
