I said they generally don't score much, ... that's the case across the league, not just in Calgary.
There's a big issue with too much ice time going to the fourth line in Calgary right now, that gets exasperated if you balance the lines out. They need to get more top heavy not less.
I'd strip the fourth line down to 8 minutes max, and with that I wouldn't burry quality prospects in that role.

I can see what you’re saying.
If the 4th line gets limited to 7-8 minutes a night, I get it. But if they’re playing 10-12 minutes like they are currently, I’d love to see some skill on that line.
