If Roy plays well today, he'll get the start again tomorrow, I can almost guarantee it.
It's better to test the mettle of a prospect than to waste games on a PTO. It's a developmental league, sometimes playing lots is part of that development.

I don't think it's extreme at all.
And how exactly would stating Dell for 1 game be wasting a game of his PTO? I believe with goaltending PTOs you lose a game whether he plays or not as long as he dresses.
Plus he was signed to a 25 game PTO with 24 games remaining. Even if I am wrong about the above he could start every game without fear of it ending sooner than we would like.
