Was looking at the possession stats from last game and line matchups.
Looks like the Kessel line is outplaying Kuznetsov handily. Sid's line, despite the 3 goals against, outchanced Ovy's line as well.
Malkin and Cullen lines need to be better. It looks like the Cullen line's been bleeding scoring chances for a little while. I'd look into mixing up those two lines at some point especially on the road with Sid getting blanketed by Backstrom and their top D pair. I think the best we can realistically hope for is Sid to play that matchup to a draw. Kessel to outplay Kuznetsov. And Malkin to outplay the Caps bottom six.
