I'm sure he will get sent down after his 9 games, but I certainly don't fault them for not playing him against the Blues. Prior to the game, we expected that we would get rolled as usual, why put him in just to get shelled and his confidence hurt. For a kid learning the NA game, being able to see the systems unfold from above would be more valuable than him being in that specific game. IMHO.
Why even give him 9 right now? Why not send him down, let him work on his game and give him a 3 game stint closer to x-mas or the new year? He isn't needed on the roster right now, but could be later in the year.
