If you turn the puck over and get pinned in your own zone, you're going to get fewer chances to demonstrate your offense. That's just factor of having 2 zones.

I guarantee you that Huska wants Parekh to play in the offensive zone as much as possible so he can contribute offensively. Sometimes that means making simpler plays to keep the puck in the offensive zone or to get it out of the defensive zone efficiently. Every single coach in the NHL has that same philosophy, the main difference is player execution and learning when to make a higher risk play versus just moving the puck forward by any means.

I am sure once Parekh gets more used to the NHL pace and aggression level, his skill will show more and he'll get a better feel for the risk management side of making certain plays at certain times. At that point, no one is holding him back. Some things are just far less risky to do in junior than the NHL and that is what they want him to figure out without getting overwhelmed. That will come with time and fans just need to be patient. Until then, you just need to shelter him and give him easier minutes so he doesn't get beaten down.
