We had two other lines playing strong hockey last night though. I think Coop really likes what the third line's bringing right now and he's rewarding them with ice time. The top line was pressing too and getting a lot of the D-zone faceoffs. I don't think TKO's time was reduced last night because their play was off. They created a lot of chances.
Well I agree about everything you said, that's why I mentioned the depth on this team, I mean in the first period I was literally saying to myself "this team has an amazing depth when the TKO playing ok can be the "worst" line on your team tonight". In the 2nd and 3rd period the TKO slowly started to look dominant again though.
What I presume Cooper reduced the TKO's ice-time because of health concern, not because of their play but that's just me.
