Rashford Promoted to Top Line

That's right, you read that correctly. The unsigned draftee is now playing on the top line of the top team in the EU. In a move made to shake up the team and give the top line some mojo, Rashford was asked to provide that spark. The early results have been good as Axle Gunner and Jeff Lewis are starting to heat up and now look poised to overtake leading scorer Jarmo Ruutu within the next couple of games. 

 

The team has seen pretty balanced scoring thus far to date, as evidenced by the above, but judging by how Gunner and Lewis have been playing the last couple of games we may not see the balanced act last. Nevertheless, Rashford is thrilled to have earned the trust of the organization in his role to bring out the best in his line mates. "It's early days but it's encouraging to see signs of success already," said Rashford after morning skate. "Ultimately, it's down to whether we are winning or losing which will determine the success. We need Gunnner and Lewis to be the best versions of themselves to have a chance at competing so it's great to see them more comfortable out there."
