As per Steinberg's radio interview in 2nd intermission:
Burke sent Sven down based on Hartley's wishes.
Burke wants a young guy to play more than 8 minutes a night as well, and if Troy Ward plays him 24 mins, then that would be better.
Says he has to compete 60 minutes and 200 feet on the ice. But, he's not down on Baerstchi like some think.
