Hey, i'm all for Rasmus getting into the lineup, but he's not set up to succeed if you throw him in and expect him to play 20 minutes.

That's Oilers style career destroying development tactic. Hell, half of you are really outspoken on how much of a trainwreck the Oilers are for doing that.

So why do you want to put Rasmus in that position?

You shelter Rasmus' minutes. You play the veteran and challenge him to perform and eat up minutes with smart hockey.
