Yes they've had chances. Leivo got a brief look - most of his time has been spent on the 3rd and 4th line. He at least has been generating chances. His ice-time is also down a full 5 minutes per game this year. With his current cast of line mates - Nordstrom/Froese/Gawdin/Rinaldo - and playing ~9 minutes a night, there's no way we can reasonably expect production.
Simon, I've got nothing. He's been bad and isn't owed anything based on his lack of doing anything.
