Going from a leader scorer, MVP for the Marlies; to limited action, 4th liner in harder league is a mental grind. He's got the talent, but he's going to have to get used to the 4th line for a while.
He's doing well defensively I think. That's what we need the most from our 4th line anyways.
The thing about the bottom 6 is that even when though the production is not exactly flowing, they are always buzzing. Even when things are not going right, you can see they are always working hard, trying to make opportunities for themselves and trying to prevent the other team from doing the same thing. In due time, it'll lead to more consistent strong play and production, but for now they are playing solid most of the time.
Definitely could be worse.
