In the grand scheme of things every hockey game ever played is meaningless. So I think everyone will be fine

Is this the plan for Minty also? Just seems interesting to say the least.

I was just thinking that. What games is he slated to get held out of? Or have they even mentioned him being held out?
Considering he led the team in ice time last night and is playing tonight, probably not. Which is also odd.

I get that there's a vision behind it and it may even be a good one, it's just annoying and disappointing lol

True, but sports is supposed to be my pleasant distraction from those things in the real world. And as a person who is a fan of the Angels and the Raiders, I need as many positives as I can get, no matter how small the moral victories seem

Sorry you had to make 2 ducks tweets tonight as opposed to just linking an article Eric. Ty for all the extra work you do for us
Agreed. I totally get why they are doing it generally but he should’ve sat yesterday.
Leo doesn‘t belong in either of those leagues. This is the right course. He is going to develop here.
Also, NHL network having a nice piece on him. Some interesting stats. Weekes disagrees with them scratching Leo.

I guess what do they expect the 18 year old and his agent to say? It’s a fing stupid plan that I disagree with? No 18 year old is going to say that to his employer. Of course he is going to say he’s onboard. I’m guessing if Carlsson has any competitiveness then deep
Down he’s not happy with sitting.

My conspiracy theory is that, we have guys we will need to wave/trade. To many bodies, while wanting to leave kids developing in ahl “ to when they get called up they are ready and aren’t going back and forth “ and healthy scratching Leo, or randomly having Jamie drsdale and McGinn as day to day. Means we have a little bit more time to see where the fringe players are at. All masqueraded as “ we need you for the second half push”

No lucic? I guess they figured he would get pummeled by big Ross Johnston. Smart on the bruins to scratch him

that's what the agent is for, to speak up for their client. no player is ever gonna be happy about sitting, but it's not like this is the first time a promising young player has been sat before.

why isn't he wearing his protective bubble suit?
He took a shot off the foot last night on one of Marchand's goals. He tried to warm up and took one lap and went off. Nothing major
Reminds me of my friend who likes looking at his German sports car sitting in his garage haha
