I too am skeptical about Phillips, but I thought he'd get buried in the AHL, and I was wrong about that, so I wouldn't count him out, but will Sutter have a guy that small on the team? Same question could be asked about Philp and Lerby. Lerby is a guy I cheer for though, because he seems like an exciting player, and because we beat out a few other teams in aquiring his services. Scorp seems to like him so far.
I think you are likely on point. Pospisil looks like an awesome bottom 6 guy. Ruzicka is definitely talented but very inconsistent you wont even notice him a few games at a time.

Phillips wouldn't be on my list of call ups. I guess you want to see what he can do but I haven't been overly impressed. Same with Philip he has an eye for offence but seems like a fairly slow skater. I love Lerby though.
