the 4th line has been doing their job. They go out there, cycle a bit, get some scoring opportunities and even play physical here and there. Cannot ask for much more. Having said that, I'd rather see a fourth line with Sjo-Betts-Orr. Why? First, Sjo and Betts can kill penalties. Sure the PK hasn't been a huge issue this year, although it has dropped year over year, but when they're killing penalties there are other players who can focus on other aspects of the game as well as other players who get to rest here and there which over the course of the season can be a good thing. So with Sjo-Betts-Orr you get about the same you're getting more at even strength with the PK/rest kicker.
