He's played 4 games, mostly against very bad teams.
He's looked good but throwing him straight into 20 minutes of high-leverage would to me be a bit ridiculous.
Yeah going right to 20+ minutes wouldn't be the next step. But Soucy isn't playing well, so shuffling the bottom 4 (5 with Forbort I guess) around a bit and having 2 18 minute pairings behind H/H is something to look at.
Won't happen tomorrow night, but imo it is time to give Brannstrom a bit more time and responsibility and see how it goes. But I'm meaning 16+ mins, not 20.
Really though, next step for Bran Van 3000 is to see how he looks on the right.
