2007-08: Saw his first taste of NHL action in a three game call-up to finish off the season. Improved upon his AHL rookie season, playing a more consistent game, and contributing more offensively. Played on one of the top two lines most of the season. Was effective killing penalties, leading the Crunch in short-handed goals.
