"The problem with how the Penguins have handled that this season is that the few skilled players who have been promoted from the Baby Penguins -- guys like Janne Pesonen and Chris Minard -- have almost invariably been cast in blue-collar roles that do not give them the opportunity to prove whether they can be productive offensively at this level. Just because a player puts up points in the minors doesn't mean he can do it in the NHL, of course, but when a team struggles to score goals, as the Penguins have at various times this season, those guys should be given a chance to show whether they can be part of the solution."
