1. Continue the momentum generated from the first line
The TSA line (Teravainen-Staal-Aho) has easily been the best of all pairings for the Canes this season. Staal got the Canes on the board, and nearly powered the team to even things up against Toronto. Teravainen also notched another point.
One of the biggest keys to success for the Canes is getting the most out of the three forwards that Peters seems to trust the most. Staal does need to find more consistency than the random breakouts of points he’s had early.
But, the three leaders in points for this squad are all on this first line. The other three lines of forwards needs to solve the problem that the first line already has. More than just Williams and the first line needs to come through as well.

Especially if Aho and Teravainen keep up the type of production seen recently, the rest of the forwards are sure to pick up the pace. Carolina does have something special here with one of the best offensive lines in the Metro.
