It’s easy as a fan to second guess now.
How much development can you actually get by sitting a player in the NHL for 2 weeks followed by 2 weeks in the AHL?

Also, I'm pretty sure that Huska was trying to put Parekh in a position to succeed, instead of outright scratching the kid. Besides can you imagine the fan outrage if they did it right out of the gate.
