They obviously see something in him or they wouldn't be walking him out every night.

He's the best fit for 4th line c, imo, the scratches say a lot.
Conceivably it's easier to scratch Hathaway and czarnik than janko.
I know I/we have remarked previously about this, but I think it is extremely notable that czarnik isn't getting reps.
Janko, Frolik, Hathaway, Andersson have all been seemingly given an opportunity to get back in a game to prove their stuff.
Czarnik is either being held to a much tougher standard, is banged up, or something more substantial is going on behind th scenes to keep him out of the lineup.
It will be interesting to see the minutes and situations he gets when he is next in the lineup.
