When a game gets near the end, you should be shortening the lines somewhat.

The 4th line should certainly not be on the ice with 4 minutes left in any close game.

The lines aren't simply rolled anyway, so suggesting that you had to play the 4th line with 4 minutes left so your best 3 lines could play the last 3 minutes is showing how much you missed the point.

I bet the other team was not playing their 4th line.
