With the season where it currently is, I think every game where Hunt or Kirkland line up instead of a Stromgren or Kerins is an opportunity lost (however small).

I have no real use for Kirkland. Even before his injury I didn't get it (except for the shoot outs). Now he's slower. It's too bad.
Hunt is plug n' play. Maybe he skates or maybe he eats popcorn. Not sure.
I'm also not particularly high on Bill or Kerins.
So it's a whole lotta meh to me.
For me the key is how the organization develops the forwards that I view as having more upside: Gridin, Basha, Honzek, Suniev, and then as Potter, Reschney turn pro. Right now I think we are in a relatively dead zone in terms of NHL ready forwards in the pipeline, outside of Gridin who seems on a faster track.
