I would be surprised. Rumor is Russell is ready to come back so we have to send someone down. If we are calling up Yamamoto someone else needs to also go down

So dumb, they never even gave him a chance just like Aberg. Whatever
Meanwhile Rattie continues to be gifted opportunities despite doing little with it but he's a good Canadian boy so it's all good.

People are still mad about not giving Slepyshev a chance... Who is a third liner in the KHL...
They brushed Aberg aside because Mclellan didn't like him, gave him no chance to continue with Draisaitl in the preseason so of course he failed playing with plugs in the bottom 6.
They pick Zykov up as a potential goal scorer and gave a revolving door of wingers opportunities on the top 2 lines yet Zykov never got a sniff. Yet in the same token, Rattie keeps getting opportunities on the top line despite doing little with it. It's just weird that they pick this guy up and give him no opportunity whatsoever. The whole Canadian thing is hyperbole, just frustration on my part.

Aberg being waived was Abergs fault. Every right winger busted their ass in camp, fighting for a job, Aberg floated around.
Yes but he never got an opportunity to play with skill in preseason. Some guys can play in the bottom 6 and be successful, he clearly needed to play with skill.
In any event, I wouldn't be surprised if Zykov also succeeded elsewhere with better opportunity. There's clearly some skill with this player, he just needs some opportunity.

I definitely would’ve liked to see him play a game in the top six before giving up on him

Finding Hyman
Almost speechless on this one. An addon that I thought was interesting. Never even got much of an opportunity unless it was being glued to somebody like Spooner or in bottomsix. Would have to have scored from the bench or pressbox here in Petr Klima fashion to have found any home here.
Meanwhile Ryan Spooner gets in the lineup limitless times because our illustrious GM traded for him, gave a player asset up, and Spooner HAS to look good. Politics is the only reason Spooner in the lineup and Zykov waived. Or Rattie being scratched lots of games.

There is reason he was waived in the first place. That and considering there are spots here one has to think he just doesn't do enough in practice to get into coaches good books.
Also everyone saying rattie is getting chances. You do realize he wasn't hitchs favourite in stl?

Or maybe just maybe these guys are useless and have lazy habits that all coaches can't stand
