Discounting 3 goals because it is a possible anomaly from a single game is still not fair either. Who's to say non goals and crossbars in a few games isn't the anomaly instead? It is not as if those goals were so ugly or fluky either. Qaulity goals from a (mostly) young line still learning and getting better.
The 4th line is bad. I actually do not hate Brouwer on the 4th and he does add a tough guy element. Still it is an old line and declining.

As I said above, this is a line that’s playing effective hockey and creating scoring chances. But it’s a do it league and we just lost 2 close games because we’re getting out of this world scoring from 1 line or 2 lines. I don’t hold much hope for that 4th line that struggles to create a decent scoring chance, but we need execution right now. The difference last night scoring wise ended up being that the Stars got goals from their bottom 6 and we didn’t. It’s been a story almost every game and until it’s rectified, it’s going to be a grind just to win games.
