My opinion is slanted since I believe a young player like that should be playing a ton of minutes, in all situations if possible.
I get the argument that playing with the big boys can educate younger players, they learn things from experience and learning for the vets. I can see that, I guess.
And I'm not just trying to bash the Oilers. Just think he's a good young player that needs to be playing a lot right now, somewhere.
