How about instead of relying on low-upside veterans that we know aren’t the answer, we actually try to bring up a high upside youngster who we don’t know what they are at the NHL level yet.
Similar things were said about Mangiapane a couple years ago too and IMO the Flames took too long to call him up

Mangiapane is short but he isnt small. He has probably 35 lbs on MP.
Philips is tiny.
At this level it makes an enormous difference.
I have zero doubt that if BT thought he could make a difference...he would be on the taxi squad. He isnt.
