There is also a possible step between not being on the roster and playing 20+ minutes a night. You can look at how a team like the Bruins eased Seguin into the lineup.
And from the sounds of it the oilers have no plans to take precautions with a player that could become a franchise player. They figure a four day break is enough to heal a shoulder injury. Probably sent him to a faith healer or bought him a crystal or something.
