I meant waste in the sense that he's not a part of the Flames system, so giving Dell starts over Roy (if Roy is able) doesn't sit right with me.
I feel for goalies that have to wait so long and for just the right set of circumstances to get their shot. I thought it would be cool to see Heemskerk play, but in the end, it's all about the Ws and the player development.
If it will injure him to play 3-in-3 (you guys seem convinced it will) then that's not best for his development. If he feels good to go, I think you have to play Roy on Sunday too, however.
