My feeling is Perlini is being held back. Either way our 4th line is not getting many minutes. Yammo is not playing like a top 6 winger for quite awhile. Not sure where the honey badger disappeared to. He use to goto the blue point when he was scoring. I sure wish Hollaway was healthy. For anyone that has not noticed, Carter Savoie is lighting it up again. He has like 13 pts in 4 games. Another exciting prospect. Lavoie? To me Mcleod and Benson have been unimpressive. Every indication so far shows that Haas and Kahun were better players. You never know of course.
My point is if you are not doing well against lesser competition then how are you going to do well in a top 6 role? If you are carrying a line with crappy players then sure. All the the players mentioned are fringe NHL players at this point, especially on a deeper team. You need the young players to show more and they have not. What they have shown is they can be on the roster with very little minutes. Nothing impactful.
As for Yammo, if he keeps playing like he does will get > 10 goals in an 82 game season. My point was that Kahun can achieve that and more. Yammo needs to do more, a lot more if you want to be a top 6. It's not good to see Yammo trending up nice then fall off so much.
