The bottom six were getting killed in both scoring and advanced stats leading up to yesterday's game. With the addition of Jankowski and Bennett on the wing, the third line looks improved. That just leaves the 4th line in need of improvement. Stajan's been a good Flame but it's probably about time to hang them up. His line is getting sunk and that starts with him. Even Glass I'm not big on. Hamilton and Hathaway (if Versteeg is in the top 9) should probably be the guys skating alongside Brouwer. Hathaway was the best skater in game one and has lit it up in the A since going down too. Another player not where he should be. Sadly Stajan's contract is holding up some needed progress at the bottom of the line up. Having a 4th line that has jump and can cycle in the offensive zone would be a help when the first line comes on, as opposed to a slower 4th line that gets worked.

Point though is improve that 4th line and this team really has the potential to roll.
