By splitting them up in this manner, you're pretty much rolling 3 1B-C type lines...
They are all #1 lines on most average to below average teams...except most average to below average teams don't have 2 lines that are coming right behind that line that are pretty much as good, if not better than the line that just got out there. If 1 line isn't going 1 of the others might be.
It would be like playing against the #1 line of the New York Islanders the entire game. Moulson - Tavares - Okposo is a damn good line, but let's face it, they arent a line capable of single handedly carrying a team to the playoffs.
Neither would any of those lines I listed...the key, is to basically be playing Moulson - Tavares - Okposo for 50-55 minutes a night. It's not realistic for the Isles to do, but, but splitting the players up the way we have, it's pretty much like having the same effect.
