Not sure I agree.
He was the best player on the ice for them in that game against Seattle, especially in the third period when they were pushing for a goal.
Not sure he would have done enough to make the team, but he did do enough to get a look with the actual roster IMO.
He's certainly went down and had a start to the season that deserves a look though. Unfortunately the injuries on defense actually make it harder to call him up.
