I wasn't onboard with this until now, but I do think a call-up is needed after watching another game where this team just doesn't do enough to get to the hard areas. Pelletier or Phillips should at least be added for a handful of games to see if they can change the dynamic of the offense on one of the middle 6 lines.

They controlled the play...most was in the Habs zone...but they never dominated the play. There is a difference. You can control the play and pass it around the perimeter all you want but that is not dominating the play.
