Last seen on October 14th against the Ottawa Senators, it's been 16 days since he's been on the ice.
Frost is unlikely to be moved, and the team has handled the scratch correctly, according to anonymous sources. In the short term, he will be able to return to the lineup and be a productive player.
As part of the rebuilding process, the team sees him as a key player.
Since Scott Laughton is an effective center, it was difficult to get Frost back into the lineup. In the 46 face-offs Laughton has won and 29 he's lost since he replaced Frost, he's winning 61.3 percent of the time.
