You really shouldn't have to rely on the playoffs not being a realistic possibility for the chance to insert some youth in though. It should be a merit of rewarding their performance when one or more of the vets are not playing up to scratch.
Derek Grant got put in and made a great impression. Granlund might also make a good impression. I'm hoping this opens the doors up more to recalling bodies from the AHL in the future, because it's produced good results so far.
