Rookies get sat and watch from above, and get extra practice time. Because you don’t know if they know the mistake or not and maybe they need more drills.
You can say the same about young players, they may also know what they did wrong. If a Kylington or Valimaki fanned on a pass and it became a giveaway, you don't' think they would know or is this something only Vets would know?

I'm not saying give young guys free reign to screw up all the time, I'm just saying I don't agree with favoritism shown to vets because of games played in the NHL and they get away with murder.
