Maybe some people don't believe the 4th line has to be a bunch of scrubs who's only value is to provide "energy"? And that getting players who can control and cycle the puck are what a hockey team should be looking for (ie; not dump it in just to finish a check and have the play go back up ice the other way). Steve Begin is not that guy.
