Yeah I think that's probably what is fueling the frustration is the reluctance to try him out, that none of us understand

- He is producing offensively at a high level in the AHL
- The NHL club is struggling to score goals
- And the NHL club seems to be struggling with the chemistry of the players.
- The NHL club has acknowledged that they lack a top 9 forward. They've been very blunt about that.

So what's the downside in calling him up and giving him a spin.

I think almost all of us are looking at it and just saying there is an obvious thing to try. It may not work, but if that's the case you probably aren't in a worse situation than you are now.

I try to look at every situation and understand why something may not be happening, but in this case, I'm struggling to justify why they won't give him a crack.
