Yeah I noticed that shift as well as he turned it over a few times and seemed unsure of where his line mates were and where he was supposed to be. To be fair to him he has had little time to practice and acclimate himself to his teammates so I don't know how much you could expect from him. I just didn't like the idea of bringing in a guy cold for a division rival that you kind of needed to win but if Hathaway was nicked up it is what it is. He did lay a few hits which is contributing but in a game they were trailing early and for almost the entire game he's probably not going to help as much as say a guy like Mangiapane who at least could maybe finish an opportunity or set someone up if given the chance.
