I swear some of our games must have been meant for the Rangers and the NHL just didn't notice. They only have 3 games played right now.

The old "not good enough to be a 4th liner, but good enough to be a 3rd liner" routine.

In (admittedly limited games/minutes) Spezza has the lowest CA/60 on the entire team while Shore has the highest. Gauthier's is also among the highest, especially when he's playing with Shore, which of course makes sense as their numbers will be linked.

I'd have put Spezza with Mikheyev and Marner, and let Kerfoot continue to settle in with Moore and Kapanen...I think Kerfoot hasn't been consistently good enough yet, and given it's only for a couple of weeks, I think some consistency might be more helpful.
But what do I know...
Possession numbers broken down for the guys competing for the 4th line spot:
CF/60
Petan: 81.25 (1st among forwards)
Spezza: 79.54 (2nd)
Gauthier: 57.77 (12th)
Timashov: 56.63 (13th)
Shore: 56.55 (14th)
CA/60
Spezza: 32.41 (1st)
Petan: 33.62 (2nd)
Gauthier: 60.28 (12th)
Timashov: 68.76 (13th)
Shore: 70.34 (14th)
CF%
Spezza: 71.05 (1st)
Petan: 70.73 (2nd)
Gauthier: 48.94 (12th)
Timashov: 45.16 (13th)
Shore: 44.57 (14th)
Now, I don't think that these numbers tell the entire story, but it's pretty bizarre to me that Babcock was starting to really favour the Timashov/Shore duo over Petan/Spezza considering how wide of a gap they are.

These numbers obviously aren't surprising given the above but just to add them as well:
In 3 games the Petan-Spezza-Gauthier line has a CF% of 72.22%, a GF% of 33% (1 GF, 2 GA), and an xGF% of 74.44% (1.22 xGF, 0.42 xGA).
In 5 games the Timashov-Shore-Gauthier line has a CF% of 46.58%, a GF% of 60% (3 GF, 2 GA), and an xGF% of 47.89 (1.4 xGF, 1.53 xGA).
