However, before that:

• Nov. 24th vs DAL: 4-4 game, 4th line vs. top line, they get scored 10 seconds into their shift after Versteeg and Brouwer lazily watch a clearing pass slide by them before Seguin picks it off, walks in, and snipes.
• Nov. 18th vs PHI: 4-4 game, 4th line gets a shift with 2 minutes left and Stajan takes a tripping penalty
• Nov. 5th vs NJ: 4-4 game, 4th line gets 3 shifts in the last 8 minutes while the 3rd line is stapled to the bench
• Nov. 2nd vs PIT: 1-0 lead, 4th line gets a shift with 3 minutes left, gets hemmed in our own zone. 3M + Gio-Hamilton start in their own zone the next shift, get scored on.
