Suspect there will be more than a few folks on here who will absolute hate his answers on Gridin and Parekh but he is right on both of them. It is usually best to try to put your younger players like those two in the best position to succeed longterm and not just play them in the NHL so the fans have a young player to see on the ice.
Would be fantastic if Gridin stayed in the AHL until February or March and then came up for the last 6-8 weeks. Likewise it would be fantastic to see Parekh do some damage at the world juniors and then go to some contender in the OHL on a training plan to become bigger and stronger.
