I bet Phillipsnis legitimately better than some / majority of these guys.
It’s crazy how much name pedigree buys some guys. If you watch the games, they aren’t that good. That 4th line last night was horrible, for example.
For example, if you sent down Coleman / Mangiapane / Dube / Kadri since game 10 / Lewis / Lucic / Rooney / Backlund since game 8-10, etc. would any of them lead the AHL in scoring? Highly, highly doubtful. Even Lindholm looks quite useless about 90% of the time.

Yes a lot of those guys would dominate the AHL...it's a lesser league
