Icetime has to be earned, but you also have to let kids play and grow (assuming they've earned it, which he has)

They are destroying his creativity and seem to be determined to turn him into a 3rd liner. It's sad to watch.
No kidding, I thought Baertschi has been one of the hardest skaters on this road trip. Could be because you watch for it now after Burke's comments, but it seems like he's skated a LOT more in all 3 zones than some of the other players on the team (Glencross for example). I like Hartley as a coach, but it's hard to see where he's coming from on this one.
