Then what, you hope a trade falls in your lap or its Eakin/Ritchie/Lucic/Lewis in your top 9.

Yeah I think people over rate goals and assists in such a small sample size...Milano is playing surprisingly well away from the puck and is still learning the systems. We know he can score at the NHL level and away from the puck was supposedly his major weakness. I bet he gets a look with better players next week.
