That means Horak will have to battle guys like Dvorak, Fleischman, Prospal, Olesz, Novotny, Hertl, Nedved, Ruzicka, Vincour, Cervenka etc....just to be considered for the team. It's too bad he doesn't play defense.
I'm willing to bet Fleischmann has just as much right to be considered a lock as Hudler, if not more.

Over his past 4 NHL seasons he has 178 points in 244 games (.73 PPG). Over the same time frame ( 5 years, because he spent 1 season in Europe) Hudler has 171 points in 278 games (.62 PPG).

No way is Hudler a lock at this point.
