Logical move. Lets see if he can earn back his 4th line role. Decent 13th forward at worst.

The next two are home games, so the timing is really perfect. It's hard not to pull for the guy, he's been real unlucky.

I don't see a single player he can replace at this point

Once his conditioning stint is over, they should waive him. He doesn't replace anyone in the lineup and also needs playing time due to all the injuries he's had over the last 2 years.
No, one will pick him up due to those injuries, too.
Oh, this also means he will be taken off LTIR & start using cap space. His $1.1m can be fully buried in the AHL. No sense using cap space on a 14th forward. His $1.1m cap hit will also keep teams from claiming him.

% agree! Smallish and slow players don't build contenders. If they sit Heineman or Condotta for this player it will be disappointing.
Agreed.
He can/should stay in Laval. If he plays well then maybe he can be a callup if needed.

He’ll both help and hurt Laval. RHP will be an immediate improvement over players like Farrell and Kidney. But it will also rob these young players of critical developmental playing time and opportunity.
RHP is at best a fringe NHLer at present who has limited, if any upside.
This immediately made me think of The Guess Who for some reason.
Firstly "No Time Left for You"
and lastly the cool refrain at the tail end of "American Women"

Happy for him that he's healthy.
Will be interesting to see how long it takes him to get his timing back in 3 games.
Team is going well now. Hard to see him getting in while the team is doing well. I suppose Heineman would be the easy sit if MSL wants to get him in.
But I would think MSL will keep Barron, Pez, RHP, and even Primeau, out of action for long stretches unless there are injuries. I think he's found his healthy lineup until Laine comes back.

Don't get why people hate RHP so much. He's a good bottom 6er. He's the type of player that actually moves the needle at a very cheap cap.

Who gives a f*** about the development of Farrell and Kidney?
