Caufield had an immediate impact in the NHL last season, both in the regular season and in the playoffs. Caufield had 4 goals, 8 assists, and 12 points in 20 playoff games.
This season has been unique. Caufield has one point, an assist, and a season plus minus rating of -3 after ten games. Considering he would get greater ice time in the AHL, some argue he should be moved down to Laval to play for The Rocket.
