Bolts Move St. Louis To Checking Line

When you watch the games it's easy to see that he is still working hard but the scoring touch just isn't there at the moment. Hopefully he gets things in order and gets moved back up.

Bert was dropped to the third line late last week as well, just something to give the guy a kick in the butt to get him going.

By droping him to the 3rd line it might give them 3 scoring lines as he's playing with Andreychuk.

There's 100 reasons he could have been moved "down." The fact is the team needs him where they need him and his hard work and determination are very helpful for a checking line.

its probably just to get him going and motivated . during one of my high school games last year i was playing a shitty game and i was a 1st liner and my coach told me that he was going to sit me out next shift, sure enough some kid got hurt jumped the boards and i went out and scored a goal. being dropped down gives you alot of motivation to hustle more , so maybe thats what theyre trying to get marty to do
