Phillips for me is a curiosity more than anything. Sure, call him up after the month he's had. But I don't see it happening based on previous comments about the player from training camp, or Sutter's most recent sound-bite.

If Sutter wanted one of the guys in the line up, they would be in the lineup.
And those guys are not being successful in any metric. Sutter sees that too looking at their ice time in the 3rd last game.
