I'd be surprised if we didn't see him again sometime this season. Nice to see he's regained his offensive confidence down there. I still hold hope for him becoming a decent NHLer. He's got the skating, effort, physicality, character and now it seems like he's regained his hands a bit. I think he's a bit forgotten about by the fans. I don't think his opportunity will come because of his acquisition cost, I think he's legitimately one of our more NHL ready young forwards down there. I think they've left him down there this long to make sure he's really got the offensive confidence back.
With Quine, Lazar, Mangiapane and Dube we've got some really good depth options. Luckily we've been decently healthy up front so far.
