C. The fourth line plays less than 10 minutes per game. And Stajan and Lazar have been playing well. They also defend better than Bennett and Jankowski, so they got more D zone starts as a result.
Sorry, but I believe you are incorrect on all accounts. The PP was only hot for a few games. Same last year btw.
Brouwer played a lot more than 15 games on the PP. Way more,probably double that. Should have been 0 games.
There was an article about the Flames 4th line. It was the most used 4th line in the nhl at the time. It was also the least producing one. And yes, Stajan and Lazar have been better recently, but overall, they both have contributed sweet nothing to this team. The very definition of non contributors.
