I agree that 26 mins a game isn't the right move yet but 16 mins a game is very low and 0 games at 20 mins is crazy how good he is playing. He should be getting at least 20 mins every night

Agreed. He’s been incredible. I think the next step as you mention is the addition of PP time. He’s earned it. 20 min sounds about right.
My thinking on why it hasn’t happened yet. The Flames are in the middle of a 7 game road trip, tight schedule too, and I can only imagine have not had a huge amount of practice time lately. Might just be a case of the coaches wanting to get Oliver some extended PP Practice with one of the groups
