And AHL players do not produce at the same pace when brought up to the NHL typically. I dont think thats the answer either.
Agree with all of this.

1. Disappointing Jagr missed camp because he took a while to get going. But he definitely isn't any less dangerous than at least 8 of our other forwards. And he wins every board battle. He makes them look easy.

2. Exactly this with AHL guys. No, Bennett and the rest of the bottom 6 aren't producing. I know! Mangiapane or Poirier are the answers to our problems!!!

Just like Jankowski was.....
