They Sedin's have actually throw some substantial hits since playing with Kassian.
Not saying that was one of them.

Some speculation he's been playing through a minor injury he suffered in the beginning of the season in OKC. He had to go to the Oiler's doctor and get his shoulder checked out and rested for about a week before he was cleared for the WJC. He hasn't been the same player since coming back from his injury last season tbh

Meh, I couldn't care less. He wouldn't be of use to us up here, nor on the farm who likes to suck the offensive juices out of our forwards down there.
It's like we are the Chicago Nosferatus.
I don't understand the high regard for Loktionov on these boards. Drafted in 08 and hasn't really done anything since to suggest he has a lot of NHL potential. Significantly worse production than Schroeder on a higher scoring AHL team. Not exactly a stand out in the other two zones either. And I think he's going to need to pass through waivers (on the way back down) if he gets called up and can't cut it — either this season, or starting next season.

Based on this years AHL totals that is an incredible exaggeration.
Schroeder scored at a 0.63 clip this year in the AHL (good for 5th on the Wolves).
Loktionov scored 0.59 clip this year in the AHL (good for 6th on the Monarchs - slightly below Dwight King).
Despite being drafted a year earlier, Loktionov is only 4 months older than Schroeder.
Did you bother to look at their goal totals or their ES production? And he's 6th on the Monarchs despite centering the other two guys. Schroeder was the top scorer on his line.

Interesting. An injury would explain why he's been less effective than last year at NHL level. He was good at the WJC though.
Besides their stats, Loktionov is simply an inferior player. He's small, he's soft and terrible along the boards, and he's slow too. His only redeeming qualities are his hockey IQ and his shot, which he doesn't use enough. Due to his draft year he's also going to be subject to waivers sooner than Schroeder.

If there was a way to check the Monarchs' and Wolves' goal totals at the moment the lockout ended, that would be even more convincing (besides looking it up manually and doing the subtraction, that is).
In your original post you made no mention of goal totals or ES production. You simply stated "significantly worse production". Production is generally defined as point production. If you want to qualify your original post after the fact then go ahead, but don't insult my diligence.
Anyway you slice it, "significantly worse production" is an exaggeration, although I don't hold out much hope for you recognizing that.
