Figured this was likely to happen. I think he can go for a max of two weeks.
Makes a lot of sense. Practice speed isn't necessarily game speed processing. I think the conditioning stint would give the Jets the ability to bring him back for the home game in St. Louis, followed by a road trip to Buffalo and Chicago, which isn't a trial by fire, and gets him back up to speed.

Really interested to see if he gets the game action with Salomonsson and what the impact is offensively for some of the stars who haven't got going yet.
 
Yeah I don't think the timing is by accident they knew what they were doing, sending him down now gets him 4 games plus a week in-between to do additional strength and conditioning work away from the team. I'm really excited to see what he can bring and I think Arniel will give him a 5-10 game runway to show them what he can do at the NHL level.

Heinola was the second best D man on the jets last year in camp, prior to his unfortunate injury. I agree we can use his mobility and zone exits/entries.
Camp and preseason means squat, hell Lambert was great in camp but isn't near NHL calibre yet!

Tiny Heiny's problems begin in his own end against NHL competition!

Tiny hasn't played in the NHL since January 23' where he had a 10 game stint where he managed one assist and Bones had seen enough!

Two more Finnish busts. When will this team learn to stay away from the Baltic Sea?
