He's probably happy to make some NHL coin the meantime as well.

Oh I agree 100%. I would love to see him play but every minute he spends with the team is extremely valuable for his progress, even if he doesn't play. I don't think he has thought for a second that this roadtrip with the team has been a waste of time, young players do appreciate the call-ups and they understand how meaningful it is
