I think with Jurcina in the line-up our defense is adequate. Based on the six games and recent history, this team has 4 top six forwards. JT, Moulson, Parenteau and Grabner. Bailey's stalled development hurt this team, Frans is a good third line center and Okposo is currently a non-factor. Maybe a Grabner-Bailey-Nino line can generate some offense?

Bailey and Nino are slow pokes. If anything I'd like to see Strome moved up to that unit as the breakaways would be frequent 3 on 1s. Of course it would be one fragile wimpus line, but that's up to Snow and Wang to change.

Speaking of guys I'd like to have, the thought of Spezza playing along side of Tavares would probably lead to some crazy production just from his playmaking alone with John's goals swelling overnight. It would probably cost too much though, nor would he want to come here, and in terms of toughness it doesn't fill the need on that line either.
