IIRC Sven is an RFA next year, and also I think we won't be able to send him down to the AHL without putting him on waivers first. Basically if we don't give Sven a chance now to show he can make the team next year, we have to either "gift" him an NHL roster spot next year, or let him go. If someone who knows more can comment on his contract situation, it'd be appreciated.

. Kind of a small issue that his numbers dried up when Arnold went down.

We're talking about three games here. I'd be more concerned if he was playing poorly than if he wasn't putting up numbers. Maybe someone who watches the games can give us some feedback on that.
