Betts had a screwed up thumb remember? I'm sure that prevented him from doing a lot of what he could, such as pushing people and doing better on the faceoffs. Honestly, I don't think the 4th line is weak, it's just an energy line, with 3 semi to full defensive forwards. Powe and Nodl do play bigger than their size. And for the #6 d-man thing, we don't need 6 top-4 d-men. We can have a weaker #6 (not a bad #6) because of the goalie we have behind them now. Gustafsson and Bartulis fighting for the spot should be fine.
