Just curious, does anybody know who had the most points of any 4th liner in the NHL last season? Previous season?

By “big time sigh” do you mean “big time high-five?”

As long as Hendy’s bashing people in the face and scoring on 50% of his shootout attempts, I’m totally fine with 10 goals a year! Pwning Steve Downie doesn’t hurt either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgwcGzsbOX8

I really liked all facets of hendricks’ game last season, offense included. he had a few flashes of talent here or there. i wouldn’t put it past him to one day move to the 3rd line. id be amazed if he didn’t get at least a few games there this season. obviously he’s a bottom six player, but right now he’s one of my favorite bottom sixer’s in the league. can’t wait to see the new fourth line in action. Caps are going to be a real 4 line team this year (even though i’ve claimed we’ve been for the last 3 years, i really mean it now!)

Soooo if he could bust out of the 4th line, he could improve his scoring chances? Then we just have to hope he can do that …

Big time sigh on the “happy to see me” line. Jeez, Greenberg.
