And come on, I watch the games. Lucic on the ice actually looks worse than his numbers. He's not an NHL player.

He's a fourth line player!
I like your goals for the fourth line, but it isn't practical in a salary capped world with roughly 46 minutes of five on five ice time a night. We can dream about utopia or talk about restrictions on roster construction.
I'm much more concerned with the graph I put up two weeks ago showing the Flames using their 1st and 2nd line less than other teams than I am about building a fourth line that can score.
