I don't wanna be down on Hanowski but we all know the 1st round pick and Agostino were the main pieces to that trade. Hanowski was a throw in and a longshot to make the NHL.

I actually thought that Hanowski's footspeed had really improved this year. I think he's got good size and hands to be a decent 3rd line even 4th line option but the Flames coaching staff and the Heat too just don't seem to see it.
It is odd that TGW can't even find room for him. There must be something going on there. Hanowski was scoring fine at the beginning of the season and then by mid season was relegated to the 4th line.
