I would be surprised if he ever plays more than 60 games in one NHL season.

Agostino and Klimchuk are the assets with potential in the Iginla trade.
What set both Moss and in my opinion Hanowski apart from other guys with a similar skillset (3rd/4th liner) is that they both know where they have to go in the offensive zone in order to score or to set up plays and both don't mind paying the price in front of the net.

With all prospects, nothing is guaranteed, but of the 8-10 or so 3rd/4th line guys that we have in the prospect chart, I think Hanowski will beat out the enough of the others to get a regular job, if not this season next mainly due to his size + instincts.
