Kudos to him for having a resurgence, but ouch.
Hurry back Mikael.
Hurry up and develop Jankowski, Granlund, Reinhart, Deblouw.
Hurry up and sign in CGY as a UFA Getzlaf.
Good lord, what a mess.

There used to be three guys ahead of him on the depth chart.
At any given point last year it was
Jokinen
Backlund
Horak
Stajan
With a sprinkling of Morrison, Byron, Cammalleri and Jones.
Like Butler on the top pairing last year, Hartley is giving minutes to whoever is capable of barely filling them. Doesn't matter that they wouldn't get a sniff of those minutes on a different team,
someone has to play them and it's going to be the guy that is the least embarrassing out there that's going to do it.
