Two very nice 1st lines going head to head here. What's the plan to deal with them?

Am I the only person that would move Marty Walsh up the second line, slide, MacKay over to the LW, and then play Roberts on the 4th line if I was Pittsburgh in this series? I'm not crazy in thinking Westwick can play C am I?

Westwick is probably better at center than wing, but I think Roberts is quite a bit better than Walsh.

Don Marshall - Pit Lepine - Floyd Curry

I'm going to play my 3rd line against his first line.

Why did I just get Marty Barry and Marty Walsh confused? Ugh lol
