Heinen is with Boston and McGinn is injured with Anaheim. Both are in the NHL. Argument is invalid.
- Feds91Stammer
How is McGinn not in the NHL??? I also wouldn't classify DOC and Zohorna as "quality wingers."
– jmatchett383

Argument is invalid? What argument? All I suggested was playing Jeff Carter at 3rd line centre in place of Lars Eller. O’Connor and Zohorna just happen to be the wingers there right now.
I Never played them out as “quality” or “non-quality”.

This shouldn’t be as difficult to comprehend as you two appear to be having.

FTR, McGinn is on IR and Heinen (at my last reading) hasn’t been signed yet.

Are you the board’s jokers? Asking for a friend.

Puus not having a great start to the year in WBS with 0-0-0 -6 in 5GP probably has something to do with it.

Based on a quick look at the WBS Pens page, Vinnie has 2g + 2a and is E in 5 games, whereas Puustinen has no points and is -6 in 5 games. Def not calling up a guy getting buried in AHL games.

But what are their expected % numbers? You can't gauge a player's effectiveness based on his offensive output.

I personally would have selected Valtteri Puustinen or Alex Nylander considering the largest issue plaguing the team is their depth offense.

Haha it's not like RW pays any attention to WBS. Hinostroza is the top scorer (besides Sam Houde), Nylander is OK unfortunately been scratched a couple times with the vet rule, and Puustinen has been terrible Usually don't pay much attention to +/- but when you're -6 in five games and the next worst is -2, you're probably part of the problem.

Just one assist in 3 games. Had a minor injury and he's been pushed down to third line in 2 games with all the vets. Similar story for all the prospects really. Besides Smith, they're all getting less ice time, but center is the deepest with Harkins/Zohorna, White, Poulin, Koppanen, and Gruden.

Hinostroza up should open up a spot on the top line for Nylander and help keep him from getting scratched as much.
