    I think a prolonged losing skid during this road trip will be the best argument for giving Leighton a shot…provided he’s really ready to come back.

    Like Bob H said last week, I don’t think Leighton should be given a ton of work right off the bat, but Holmgren and Laviolette need to figure this the *bleep* out before it becomes a major issue.
