Yeah at game 9 I think there was a legitimate conversation about keeping him up. I thought he deserved to stay but I understood why he might need to be sent back. 20 games later and he's all but erased that conversation from memory. Dude is an NHLer and drives the play on that line as much as the other two. Finding that kind of chemistry on a line is a rare thing these days.
