From how Laviolette used McGinn last year, it's obvious he's didn't view him as a good two way guy. When McGinn played, it was more as a big body who could bang on a scoring line, not as a two way guy with grit on the third line.
Laughton could possibly beat out Adam Hall as the 4th line center, but with the ELC situation, there's no need for that to happen unless Laughton is markedly better than Hall right now

Hall could also play the Wing. Not really sure why the Flyers feel Laughton can't play on the Wing for one Season.
