Exactly. At this point, it's just a question of why the hell not. He's out performing pretty much everyone since the allstar break. Our other options are the Blender of Irrelevance featuring Buddy Robinson and Tobias Rieder. I don't think anyone is expecting much, but he's the best option available right now and he's earned it over the last 5 games.
So...why not? Give him some stability on one of the top two lines. He's never been given an extended look. It's always been short bursts during random times. These 27 games are going to be utterly irrelevant if they keep doing what they're doing - so why not try something else?
