In the first game he played, his passes lacked anything resembling touch or aim. Forget in the skates, they were like five feet off from the target. He was fast, but so was Rico Fata.

Last night hardly changed my mind. Nothing he brought influenced the game positively.

Every year we bring in a Bollig / Glass / Peluso and then reality kicks in when these guys can't play a regular shift, in the case of the latter two not even in the minors.

Quine is the obvious choice for 13th forward. Facepunching be damned. Decent forechecker, good skill, good size/speed balance, already under contract, might not even clear waivers if we waive him.
