Personally, I'd like to see Hathaway, Mangiapane would be a close second. Hrivik could even be worth a look.
There's also Klimchuk, Shinkaruk and Poirier who could be called up (not the top of the list but available). Why does it need to be a star player replacing a 3rd liner?
Ultimately our bottom 6 has been terrible all season. While Jagr isn't the worst of the bunch, we just simply are not moving Bennett, Jankowski, Lazar or Brouwer because of potential and contracts. So that leaves Versteeg and Jagr, and Versteeg has been the better of these two, and is used on the top powerplay (ridiculous but true). So the odd man out is the 45 year old on a 1 year deal who has already stated he's 99% sure he's done after this.
