Personally I think Engs should be given a shot at the PP, he'd keep it simple and just get shots on the net, the problem I realize is his speed and we'd be screwed if he lost the line to a giveaway but Wideman is not the 50+ point damn from two years ago and he never will be again.
Back to Kulak, I agree we need to send him down and I do feel he would be the first call up when the time comes, he's ahead of Wotherspoon for sure IMO.

Too bad this is the only way to 'showcase' Wideman to get trade value at deadline or we'll let him walk for nothing.
Its a fine balance, but most people probably don't care about trade value and just want to win with the best players on the ice.
