And it doesn't matter, because you are definitely improving the team for those 7 minutes a game. And if Raymond, Backlund, and Colborne want to take ice time away from other forwards, they'll have to outperform them.
The '89 Flames had Theo Fleury and Jiri Hrdina playing on the fourth line, and in the playoffs, Hrdina spent most of his time in the pressbox. If you have so many good players that it's hard to find enough ice time for them all, that's a GOOD problem to have.
