BTW, Rinaldo has played 12 games with 2 goals and 3 points. Czarnik has exactly the same production. He's only played 8 games but that likely is maybe a one point difference if you pro-rated it. And Rinaldo supplies a few other attributes as well.
ETA: If we are making arguments for callups based on AHL production you can probably make pretty good arguments for Quine, who produces about the same in the AHL, and has a smaller cap hit when called up. Or Gawdin, who produces well, but is younger, and maybe you'd like to see what he can do. Those guys have a bit more heft as well.

Yea, Jankowski, Reider, Rinaldo and Czarnik are not really ideal players to dress a full 82 games.
Its why many feel we need to add 2 forwards to the group.
I wouldn't mind getting a look at Gawdin at some point this season. I like Quine but he is what he is and if he comes back up he will need to clear waivers to go back down.
