from Mike Zeisberger of the Toronto Sun,
“The Sharks trio seem to compliment each other well,” Yzerman said in an e-mail to Sun Media yesterday. “Marleau’s got the speed, Thornton’s the playmaker and Heatley the goal scorer.”
Another plus: The threesome has played together before. Because of a lack of practice time between the suspending of the NHL season and the Olympic tournament, familiarity and chemistry are lucrative selling points.
“I think having the ability to bring guys that are currently playing together is a definite bonus for the reason you stated,” Yzerman said.
“I doubt we would leave off a better player for the sake of continuity but it’s starting to look like we might have combos up front and on defence that have played together.”
Some of those potential combos include:
+ Any two, if not all, of Marleau Thornton and Heatley.
+ The Flyers’ Mike Richards and Jeff Carter.
