He will be good for a long time if they get him off this stank team right now.

This post is crap, based on a crap premise and plain old incorrect information.
a. Parekh doesn't play minimal minutes. Last game he had 16 minutes, which is about his average, and was not the lowest Dman, let alone lowest on the team (eg, Lomberg had 8 minutes).
b. He's played PP2, PP1 and empty net situations. I suspect he was on the list for overtime against Montreal but that ended too quickly.
c. He will learn 100X more on an NHL roster - any NHL roster - than in junior.
d. He can still play World Juniors.
