This way in 2018-2019, he has NHL experience and will feel a lot more comfortable playing than being a rookie at 24-25.

It isn't about age or the actual TOI. It's about quality of minutes. I don't see him developing into a role as a bottom 6 player, therefore he deserves top 6 minutes in the AHL until there is an opportunity for him with the big club to play the role we all want him to play. And that's a big one.
