I’m all for merit but here’s a kid who has the talent but can’t get out of his own head. I would gift him - yes, gift him - 20 games in the top 6 as a chance to earn some confidence. There’s obvious downside to this but the upside is helping turn back into a more productive player. Instead they’re doing the opposite and shrinking his role.

Never going to happen on this team, he probably needs to be sent to a bottom feeder to rebuild his career.
