How is it preachy? Just stating my opinion.
The guy that's a step behind shouldn't be there, period.
As for a 19 year old that still needs to learn how to be a pro, and to build his game and his confidence, getting by, statistically isn't enough, IMO - he is better off in the AHL where he can develop and excel
