Like I've mentioned before, this board, despite its knowledge, has no patience for the normal vicissitudes of player development, which include long periods of bad play at 19-20, even with supposedly "high" IQ young players. The good thing is management and the coaching staff knows that the team is in the early-middle stages of the rebuild and the best thing for his development is to keep getting him reps with good players on a good line.

I fully understand your point, but his play is actually not even close to be considered developing. If we are to make a push to make the playoffs, his play needs to pick up real fast or otherwise he'll be a weight on that line that is gonna cause problems. That is why I am so hard on him, because of his level of intensity. Making bad plays come with the experience, but making bad plays after bad plays, playing with no intensity isn't what this guy was drafted to be and touted to be.
