IMO you answer no three times there and therefore Nakladal sits.

Why does Nakladal 'deserve' to sit? Fear of the unknown, does not mean arbitrarily rewarding the known.
Right now with Wideman out our 2nd PP needs a right handed shot defenseman, and Engelland won't cut it in that role. It's worth a shot to improve the special teams performance alone. This team being T30th place isn't any one individual's fault but obviously they're not a roster as a whole that "deserves' anything.
