Rheault, Walter, Kolanos, and Wilson have almost single-handedly been winning the Heat their games (offensively anyways).
To put it in perspective:
Rheault has 12 points in his last 10 games.
Kolanos has 21 points in his last 17 games.
Walter has 10 points in his last 13 games.
Wilson has 9 points in his last 10 games.
These four specifically, with Taylor's outstanding goaltending, have kept the Heat afloat. I would imagine, unless Feaster makes some trades, we will see Bouma, Byron, Horak, and/or Irving back in Abby, which should help offensively.
EDIT: I'd also like to mention that our WHL prospects don't make the playoffs can play with the Heat for a month before the Calder Cup playoffs (if they have a contract). As of today, all of our prospects would be in the playoffs. The Wheat Kings are holding on to that last spot in the Eastern conference and unless they pick it up a bit, we could see Ferland playing for the Heat by mid-March. Portland, Kootenay, Edmonton are shoe-ins.
