Actually, thanks for posting that because it pretty much proves that Canada was rolling basically three lines. Either could be the "first line". There is about 30 seconds a period separating lines one, two or three.

Certainly doesn't show that Iginla wasn't trusted by the coaching staff, or he wouldn't have been put on those lines or with the best player.
