And now with Teravainen being in NA, Hartman developing nicely and guys like Nordstrom impressing as well, it's not going to become easier. Other teams will be able to give him a chance in the NHL earlier, with less fierce competition. Quite similar to Corban Knight last year, who knew that he would be buried on the depth chart in Florida behind numerous other young centers.
Yeah, he isn't good enough to demand a NHL roster spot.
