I'd argue that being part of the top line and working with Monahan will be just as good for his development than being the second line center. He'd be playing against tougher opponents and playing with known good players on our side.
When you say very late in the season you mean mid January?

I'd argue that when you're trying to learn a position in the NHL, or any league for that matter, that it is most important to get time in at that position, and in situations where the player has potential to achieve some success. Seems this is how most good teams do it anyways.
