True. I don't think anyone here really knows more than the Flames what is best for him. Their intentions are to make him the best player possible.
It's just a matter of business that teams need to decide before a player plays that 10th game whether or not burning a year is worth it. He's been good enough at times that he looks ready, but he has also looked in over his head at times that I think there are legitimate questions. I also worry about the amount of physical punishment he has been taking.
Based on the practice lines today, it looks like he might be a healthy scratch for the next game, so I do wonder if they are taking a good look at what's best at this point.
