How many lines are the Badgers using today

I've see UW's top three lines play so far for sure. I am not sure if the fourth line has seen any time yet.
Friday November 20, 2009 2:15 
2:16
1st, No Score,12:06 left - St. Cloud with another golden chance, but Holly Roberts whiffs on a pass. She would have had a tap into an empty net if she got her stick on the puck. A Badger may have caused the miss.

2:18
1st, No Score,10:25 left - Prevost gets a long breakaway and takes a shot after a little stickhandling, but SCSU's Nixon easily turns it away.

Friday November 20, 2009 2:30 
2:31
1st, No Score,1:32 left - One penalty kill down for the Badgers and two more to go. 1:03 left in 5-on-3. 1:42 left on power play time for SCSU.

Friday November 20, 2009 2:31 
2:32
1st, No Score,1:12 left - Another save or two for Ruegsegger on a Husky camped to the left of the goalie. Shots on the board show 9-8 for shots in favor of the Badgers. I would guess great scoring chances are at about five or six each.

2:52
2nd, UW leads 1-0, 18:48 left - The Badgers FINALLY convert. After two or three rebound attempts from right in front, Brooke Ammerman scored her 10th of the season. Decker and Deluce with assists.
Friday November 20, 2009 2:52 
2:53
2nd, UW leads 1-0,17:36 left - Ruegsegger nearly falls playing the puck at the side of the UW goal, which inspires a taunt or two from the crowd.

2:54
2nd, UW leads 1-0, 16:40 left - Two Badgers skate past a juicy rebound in front of the SCSU goal. The puck came off the SCSU goalie's pads with just a little too much bounce and speed.
Friday November 20, 2009 2:54 
2:57
2nd, UW leads 1-0,14:04 left - Nifty play with Kranz and Sanders, with Kranz making a nice move to her backhand, but she's stopped by Nixon in goal.

Friday November 20, 2009 3:02 
3:04
2nd, UW leads 1-0,8:31 left - SCSU with its best chance of the period. Felicia Nelson misses pretty much an empty net on a rebound. There was a Badger on her tight, so I'm sure that was part of the reason.
Friday November 20, 2009 3:04 
3:05

Friday November 20, 2009 3:05

3:41

Friday November 20, 2009 3:44 
3:45
3rd, UW leads 2-1, 9:57 left - A Husky went hard into the boards behind the UW net, but just got up after a little bit. She appears to be ok, just a little slow to the bench. She went in legs first. I think it was Meaghan Pezon, but not completely sure.
Friday November 20, 2009 3:45 
3:46
3rd, UW leads 2-1, 8:41 left - SCSU pressing. Holly Roberts with a nice move out from the corner, but Ruegsegger there for the save.

3:56
3rd, UW leads 2-1, 2:29 left - Ammerman takes a slash in the neutral zone on the rush, nothing called. Decker picks up the loose puck, beats one defender and finds Deluce on the far side of the goal. Deluce shoots but is stopped...
Friday November 20, 2009 3:56
