I mean, I don't doubt that they will, but why does it make sense to recall bottom-6 type guys when two of their top scorers are out? Shouldn't they recall two of their top scorers from Stockton?

Gawdin is up there, too, but he's a pending UFA and has always projected as a bottom-six guy. Pelletier is probably best suited for top-six minutes right now and Phillips has always been top-nine or bust.

Also, how many preseason games did Phillips play, two? I wouldn't put much stock into that at all, especially because he wasn't playing with very good linemates.
