The fourth line has been a point of contention for the Sharks all season, and for good reason. While Peter DeBoer really seems to like running a line filled with face-punching “energy creators” it’s not exactly like his alternatives are great. So tonight’s fourth line is certainly good for the rolling of eyes but it’s probably not that much worse than the next best option. Anyway, whatever, maybe Mike Brown will fight Corey Perry and it’ll all be worth it.
