A kid that's NHL ready isn't going to learn much by going down and dominating at that level. We can all talk about how it builds his confidence up. But the bottom line is an NHL coach should be able to manage a players emotional state.

I think he should stay. 9 games is barely enough time for him to start get comfortable at this level. I want to see how he plays once he settles in a bit.
