The issue isn't Rooneys play he is a adequate 4th liner player, it's wasting roster space on a guy like Eakin who isn't needed and now you have to push Rooney up the lineup so you can fit in Eakin. Rooney is not a 3rd line player and the depth becomes worse. You're only a deep team if the players you have are good. Eakin isn't good. Rooney on the 3rd line isn't good.
