He seems like a good locker room guy and can still be useful for certain games but he should be spending more time in PB than in games.

Bollig sitting doesn't make much sense as he is an effective player and has a wider range of potential opponents out there.
The team didn't improve that much though (arguably got worse with Cammalleri leaving). I think McGrattan will still play at least 70 games next season. Maybe in 2015-16 he starts to sit in the pressbox a little more often, but I think he'll still get to play in most of the games next year.

And Bollig is definitely going to play, no way he sits out.
