The question is, if given a reasonable opportunity will Phillips/Pelletier/Schwindt bring more value, energy and points to this team than Lewis/Ritchie/Lucic based on the current lines and slottings?

I don’t think we need to revamp the whole entire offense with some call ups. All I am asking for is one winger who is dominating the A and deserves some playing time in the middle 6. The problem with Phillips was his size because we already had a tiny dude in Gaudreau. Well? He’s gone now. Phillips has paid his dues. He deserves a long look on a line with either Huberdeau and Kadri or Backlund and Coleman. Whatever gets Lewis down on the 4th line and in an even rotation with Rooney, Lucic, and Ritchie. We have that flexibility with Lewis as a C/RW and Rooney as a C/LW.
