Our first line has been good all year (Higgins, Koivu, Ryder)
Our second line (Sammy, Kovy, and Perez) is very dangerous, and I think with Perezhogin on the wing, they aren't so much of a liability on D.
The third line looks very solid, and Lats looks like he really belongs. He is hitting very hard and getting chances playing with Bonk and Johnson.
The fourth line played well as an energy line. Begin is far more comfortable on the wing, Pleks, though held without much in the way of statistics, is a great 4th line centre, and Downey is Downey, a hard working, hard hitting guy who can drop the gloves.
I like it too, with all 3 lines clicking then things can only get better for the habs! other teams have to look out for not only one or two lines, but the third line as well, montreal is becoming a force to be reckon with!

The brilliant thing is that now we have 4 good lines, so if one has an off night, the others will pick up. Although I think the first was better than against TO, so they are already getting back in form.
