They will play through this and back to contributing - arguably Colborne is starting to get to back, the others not so much yet. But for now it is a hit even though on paper they are much better than those they replaced on the roster.

I could be wrong but haven't Stajan and Raymond been playing on the 4th line? If so then all they did was replace Sven and knight.
I think the 3rd pairing D has had more to do with loses then the 4th line forwards.
