If this team is going to do any damage the three question marks in my opinion are Hertzberg, Stinziani and Lesieur. We pretty well know what we are getting from every other player on the team but these three seem to have the opportunity to really contribute based on their skill sets. I wasn't at the game last night either but can someone recap how all three played and on what lines. Thanks

I thought all 3 played very well.
Stinziani had a beautiful goal on the pp. He is possibly the fastest skater on the team. Also had an assist.
LeSieur had a penalty shot, but, was stopped. He did, however, have a very nice goal in the third. He skated backwards from the corner and did a little turn around move and went fivehole. Also had an assist.
Hertzberg had 2 assists. He's a great skater and what impresses me most is his backcheck.
Bernard/Adam/Hertzberg
Stinziani/MacDougall/MacNeil (I think?)
I forget what line LeSieur was on.

The Bernard/Adam/Hertzberg line was by far the best line. They were very entertaining to watch. The combined for 6 points. I also like the second listed above. They also combined for 6 points. LeSieur played with Cuzner and Lapostolle I believe. But again I think the first line listed was above all others.

Sounds about right (in regards to the line combination).
That leaves Horyl/Shaw/Bougeois for the GB/NW line, as I call it.
If this is what line combinations Durocher is sticking with, its a little different than I remember reading.
I thought the consensus was that Bernard was going to be playing on a lower line (3rd or 4th) and LeSieur was going to be up on 1st or 2nd.
I like it, though.
I like having a gritty forward like Bernard up on line 1 or 2 to protect the stars. Reminds me of when Gainey threw Laraques up on a line with Kovalev last spring in the playoffs.

How did Mtl do in those playoffs? |
