Michaud and Lemay's +/- when on ice together is -10 each.
Michaud without Lemay is +9. (+6 of which is games 31 and 32 (at Coventry and Fife) when on a line with 56/61.)
Lemay without Michaud is -11.
The 16/17/98 combination that has been playing together recently is a net -18 between them, scored 2 goals, conceded 8.
10 of Lemay's points have come on the PP.
Surely it’s worth mixing it up and putting Nieminen-Roy-Lemay together? Imo they are our three best forwards, yet I can’t recall them having a spell together this season
Line combinations are a bit of a black art.
Your best line isn't necessarily all your "best" players.
Ling/Graham/Benedict and Adey/Hadden/Zukiwsky are often (quite rightly) heralded in these pages, and they are the perfect theoretical combo of skill/sniper/"hard worker" that you need.
13/17/43 have been out together 5 on 5 a few times in the last few games, and have scored and conceded one goal so far.
The three of them have often been out together with our goalie pulled (always with Neill as well) and their record in that situation is 0 scored, 5 conceded.
They were all out together for our first goal in Guildford, 6 January, on a delayed penalty.
