Anthony Petrielli discussed the Maple Leafs' playoff forward lineup, emphasizing the importance of their top six players for offensive production. He noted that while the top line is among the best in the league with a strong record, the second line is possibly the best configuration they've had heading into playoffs, featuring key players like Nylander and Tavares. However, concerns persist regarding the bottom-six's lack of offensive contribution. The power play's effectiveness is also in question as it has shown inconsistencies, crucial for playoff success.
With the way it is configured, it all falls on the top six. You are not going to get much offense from the bottom-six lines.
Their top six is really good. Their top six, on paper, is fantastic. The McMann-Tavares-Nylander line is winning their minutes.
