So is Army still working back from a nagging injury or conditioning
or is it just that he's sucking like all the rest of the team not named
Kessel?

Are they just planning on cutting him / trading him for salary reasons?? Playing a bunch of games without so not like he'll be missed if cut at this point.

I was surprised to find out Colby's only played 5 playoff games in his career (with the Pens). Thought he had a bit more experience there but I guess he got shipped off to Atlanta right before the Penguins started to make an impact there.

If Burke got a fair offer I wouldn't be opposed to shipping off his contract at the deadline.

Me neither.

Ideally, it would coincide with Burke bringing in another high-priced forward. Like when Kubina was traded to make room for Komi/Beau (hopefully it works out better than that of course).

He certainly is one of the contracts that should be dealt or basically given away in a deal.  However, he may be harder to unload in a trade than Komi right now.  You know it isn't much wonder Burke isn't a big fan of UFA's, his track record with the likes of Komi, Armstrong and Connoly have been shockingly disappointing. 

If the Leafs need cap room he could be sent to the Marlies however, as he doesn't have a NMC.
 
I feel bad for Boyce.  I don't think he does anything less effectively than Brown, but the team just needs to get more scoring in the lineup.  I'm interested to see who they call up at this point.

Opens up a couple roster spots, just in case. It certainly is curious.

That stupid post deadline call up rule might have something to do with this.
