Again, source?
Hey! I have one! It just happened to be the first link that came up when I searched "setoguchi, first line":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devin_Setoguchi
"During the 2008–09 season, Setoguchi spent most of his ice-time with teammates Joe Thornton and Patrick Marleau on San Jose's first line.[5]"
That "5" you see there? That links to NHL.com, and they write:
"San Jose's top line of Joe Thornton, Patrick Marleau and Devin Setoguchi has a lot to do with the team's success this season, but that unit hasn't produced much since the All-Star break. The trio has combined for just two assists in their last three games."
Is NHL.com credible enough for you?
Edit: And since when does "ice time and shifts per game" rebut "he played on the first line" anyway?
