If he’s playing with tanev, he’ll be playing bigger minutes no matter what. He might play a more confident game knowing he’s not one mistake away from being benched. Which hopefully will lead to him making less mistakes overall.

I wouldn't be so confident. If he really messes up, Sutter will swap Kylington and Valimaki during the game to see if Jusso can fill that spot. The only thing holding him back from starting there is that Valimaki and Gudbranson have done well together so far.
