Pretty much a call-up, I dont see him as a hawk 4th liner anytime soon, unless we moved alot of guys in the off-season

Has he been playing much? Morin, I mean.

C'mon Iago, only 3 categories count, Goal, Assists, and Points :Rolleyes:

but to answer your question, he battles quite a bit of injuries, so he hasn't been in the line-up much
