TAN-line will be the real 2nd line though.
I hope Mule doesn't start floating again.
I am worried about the Mule being with Datsyuk as well.. he has played some awesome hockey lately.. Hope he keeps it up!

Miller has way more goals. Where's HIS icetime?
Haha, if you're talking chemistry Datsyuk + Zetterberg will get it done. Remember in the first 20 or so games when they scored like 60% of our points (just made up that number). Too bad no other lines could product. But yes, Mule - Z - Nyquist was a great line as well. I also really like Tatar and Miller together.
Yeah when everyone is healthy we got a lot of good combos to work with
Lines/combos that "clicked"
D - Z - Bert
Franzen - Z - Nyquist
Nyquist - Franzen - Tatar
Abs - Helm - Alfe
Tatar - Andersson - Miller
Only players that haven't shown any kind of chemistry with anyone are
Weiss, Cleary, Sammy.
Z on line 1 and line 2? Boy he's gonna get tired
He's not posting a lineup, just showing which lines clicked
Andersson should follow his line onto the PP.
Cleary on the PP is a joke. I mean really it's just inexcusable.
But at least Sammy's off the PP.
Babcock needs to give this man crush a rest. I bet if he was asked about why, he would cite Cleary scoring last game.
When healthy id go
Mule-Z-Nyquist
Weiss-Datsyuk-Alfredsson
Tatar-Helm-Abby/Miller
Cleary-Andersson-Abby/Miller
Pretty good. I would try
Z - D - Tatar/Abby
Franzen - Weiss - Nyquist
Tatar/Abby - Helm - Alfe
Miller - Andersson -Bert/Cleary/Sammy
At least few games. If Weiss doesn't get it going, split up Z and D.

Howard said he's starting tomorrow, as per Khan
I don't think the cost of keeping D and Z together is worth the depth you lose. If you can get similar production from a Mule-Z-Nyquist line while freeing up Datsyuk to center another line, you have try that option IMO
i like the third line, nice that babs is going to try the GR line.
but now the 2nd line is dump and chase line. without the speed to chase. and without the defensive ability to use as checking line.
well maybe they only get shifts in offensive zone.
is it worth the possible back injuries he might suffer bc of playing in harder position and during olympic year?

I'm failing to see how that would have little to any impact on that at all.
