If other teams are able to effectively counter our top line, as they appear to be since we suck 5v5, our 3rd and 4th need to be able to outscore theirs.
I've long beleived you're better served by essentially creating 3 versions of line 2 and 1 version of line 3 instead of 1,2,3 and 4.

I agree. While I see the appeal of McD and Leon being on the same line because they can do some fantastic things, if you are going to load them up, they have to score every game. They have to immediately tilt the ice and dominate when they are out there and they can't be poor defensively. They can't be getting hemmed in their own zone like they do and they can't give up as many goals as they do. Even when they are full strength, you have already diluted your lines with them together, when they give up goals against, it makes it even worse.
I would have these lines next game.
Foegele - McD - Hyman - Hyman and McD work well together. Foegele is there to drive the net, screen goalies, forecheck hard.
Holloway - Leon - Yamo - Leon likes playing with Yamo. Holloway provides speed for Leon especially if he is not 100% physically.
Janmark - Nuge - JP - This line should be OK defensively and in theory they should have more talent than most other teams lines in Nuge and JP. Plus without McLeod, they really need a 3rd line center that they trust so they can play the 3rd line more rather than playing the crap out of the top 6.
Kostin - Shore/Ryan - Shore/Ryan - I have Shore and Ryan split center duties taking faceoffs on their strong side.
