[QUOTE="IlliniJim20, post: 1179972, member: 10516"] Oftentimes, a solid grinder type works wonders on a top line, as Shaw has been showing. He does the dirty work, gets the puck in the corners, takes hits to make plays, commands [I]some[/I] attention as a grinder, meaning defense players must account that he will go hard after a loose puck, so they better do so as well. This in turn opens things up for your skilled players, just as skilled players often open things up for others due to the attention they command. [/QUOTE]
