Many people underestimate the true value of a great fourth line. In some cases, it can be the difference between a Stanley Cup and a finals flake out. Just look at when the Boston Bruins a few years back when they won it, their fourth line was instrumental in their playoff run. As the Buffalo Sabres go towards a season that they want to start winning, their depth needs to be strong and having Cody McCormick as the fourth line center will give them that.
All summer long I, along with every single other Sabres fan, have been playing around with what the possible line combinations could be for next season.
