Not sure what the solution is. Frolik is getting sufficient 5-on-5 time. So this is obviously about special teams utilization.

A) PP time - he might have a case to be on PP2. Ryan and backlund are mainstays. So he maybe wants neals spot or Bennett spot. I could him replacing either working ok, and it might at 2 min of ice time per game.

B) PK time - frolik, backlund, lindholm, Janko, Hathaway, frolik, ryan. Pick four. Backlund, lindholm and Janko are mainstays. And Hathaway has been super effective. So I can see how frolik could be really good on the PK, but who does he replace? Lindholm maybe? Would add about 3 mins a game if he got on PK.


IMO Frolik is next in line for PK duties and next in line for PP duties. So we need him in case of injury. Also if anyone in the top 6 gets injured, he plays in the top-6. He's basically an amazing insurance policy.

Walsh wants to see Tre trade him or Peters utilize him better. Tre isn't going to trade him and Peters is going to coach how he wants. This team is a serious cup contender and we can't not have an insurance policy like Frolik on the roster. So my best guess is that for now, even with Walsh's whining, nothing is going to happen
