Sven's skill should be nurtured, not thrown by the wayside. The player that Sven can be is far more valuable than the current game Gallagher plays.

He doesn't have to be Gallagher, you realise that right? He just needs to emulate his play a bit and add some of those elements he is missing.
I don't understand, you don't want Sven to change, or improve, or learn, or anything really. You just want to send him out, give him an automatic 15 minutes per game and let him play "his" game, which his terribly underdeveloped and no where near rounded enough for him to stick in the NHL long term. You're wishing failure on him because you're impatient.
That player you covet so deeply would be ruined if everything went the way you wanted it to. He's not Patrick Kane, he's never going to be, but if we can get a Hossa out of him? We're laughin'
