24 mins for top pair
20 mins for 2nd pair
16 mins for 3rd pair (put these guys in a bit of tough situation to see how they respond)

Don't care about this season but need Gio-Brodie healthy for next year. I really dont like Hartley's madness.
I think (hope) this is a function of trying to be competitive against teams that are still in it - doing their league-ly duty, as it were.

Let's wait and see games like Buffalo tomorrow to see how he manages those types of games... I imagine we'll see more minutes for the try-out squad and a little less reliance on the top guys.
