He got no PP time at all during the second game, and if I had to guesstimate only received around 10-12 minutes of total icetime. I can't speak to how he was utilized in the first game as I did not watch all three periods.
I am not sure if the treatment of his icetime was as a result of his play during the first game, or if Benoit Groulx (his head coach in Gatineau) simply wanted to get more of a first hand look at the other participants seeing as he will be an assistant coach to Brent in Malmo.
