Foo shoots right and outproduced Mangiapane in their respective short NHL stints.

Yes, Hathaway and Lazar are the most likely candidates for one of the extra forward positions, since at this point in their careers, neither of them has much to gain from spending more time in the minors. Given that Peters seems to like Hathaway, it will probably be him, and Lazar will likely be waived. Due to his other attributes, Peluso may have the inside track on the other extra forward position.
In the post you quoted, I was referring only to the starters.
