But Phillips is quick, and a dog on a bone, he's way undersized, but I'd love to see him get a look and see if he could add some offensive zone time to the bottom six.

I think what is hurting Phillips' chances are having Gaudreau and Mangiapane on the team. You add Phillips and 25% of your forward group is sub 170lbs (sorry, won't believe Mangiapane is over 180)
