Should the Line Combos be changed?

We saw MacT trying to put Laraque up on the first line to protect Weight, and sometimes Cleary back in his spot. But I don't think that Laraque on the first line will help the Oilers win this series. I think a real change up is needed for the first two lines. Not major but enough to change it up a little.

Zholtok Weight Carter
Smyth Comrie Cleary
Murray Marchant Grier
Moreau Horcoff Laraque

Brewer Niinimaa
Poti Ulanov
Smith Butenschon

Salo
Gage

It may work, it may not, but the line combos did not work like they were supposed to last night. I think with Carter on Dougie's wing that it may give him a better chance to score, plus Zholtok can set up well also for both Anson and Doug. Smyth and Comrie work well together and Cleary could set up Comrie better than Carter. Again hard to say if this would work, bu its something.
