This happens to sooooo many tweener/hard working role players. They act like it's a standard job where you work hard, get promoted then once some time passes you slow down to a standard pace in the new role and all is good.
Role player in the NHL doesn't work that way, the league is too skilled and fast. You play hard and fast or every one on the NHL team and 5 guys on the AHL team will pass you in seconds.
