Having a good shot attempt percentage is great, but if you can't put the puck in the net at the NHL level, it doesn't really matter.
Would I rather have that fourth line than any fourth line with Glass on it? You betcha, but it's not the "optimal" fourth line with the Rangers current personnel, IMO. (73-24-19)
How many NHL 4th lines regularly put the puck in the net, though? I think a Corsi dominant 4th line can sort of serve as a perfect placeholder for a team while it rests it's better lines. Also, Lindberg is a shoot first guy that has been playing better as of late, and Fast can be a pretty impressive passer. Throw a hard worker like Hrivik in the mix and I think that given time, they'd be a line that can both control possession and score. We'd have to give it a chance to work, though. No two games and done. Do it for a month and see what happens. Of course, this would have to be for next season. It's a little late for AV to introduce Hrivik to the line-up this season. AV is already set on Glass/Pirri/Pumps for that 4th line LW.
