Well, you're not as confused as he is.
Sentimentally , but cant really justify based on performance. IT's a shame what that mother f***er did to him.

His 15-16 season was better than any season of our remaining prospects. I just wonder if he can recapture what made him an early 2nd.
I'd like to think it's possible that he recovers, but who knows? I think this year in the AHL will tell us quite a lot.
He's on an ELC so we will likely have three years to see unless we trade him.

At this point, individual ranks are almost meaningless, i.e., all these guys have the potential to make the NHL, but none are close to sure things. To me, the real question is the cutoff between prospect and suspect.
Cates, Kalynuk, St Ivany, Sushko, Twarynski are prospects.
Bernhardt, Bunnaman, Westfalt, Laberge, Willcox, Wylie and De Haas are suspects.
Fazelev, Hain, Martel, Vasiliev, Warren are long shots.
It's easy to project the first group to bottom six/3rd pair roles, though maybe not in Philly.
The second group will have to take a significant step up. According to Ron, De Haas is taking that step.
The third group just hasn't shown enough to be serious candidates even for a bottom of the roster spot.
I know I am evoking the wrath of the Cap'n, but Bunnaman simply didn't show much as a PD +2 at center, hopefully as a LW in the AHL he'll find a spot that allows him to use his size and skill and covers for his lack of speed.
Same with Laberge, he's been so bad the past two years that until he turns it around and shows he's past his injury, he's a suspect.
