Expectation: Corvo was signed as insurance, a cheap 6/7 guy who could provide some offense, knowing the risks that he posed in his own end from his previous tenure in Ottawa
In The First Half: Corvo started out in the role that was expected of him, but he eventually found himself in the lineup on a regular basis for a time in place of Wiercioch. He played in just over 50% of the games (22 of 41), and contributed 9 points.
GRADE: B
Potential For Improvement: Corvo knows and has accepted his role, but with the emergence of Ceci and the fact that Wiercioch started developing a bit of consistency, Corvo will continue to bounce in and out of the lineup.
