Agreed, I said at the beginning of the season that there needs to be a surprise or two with our young players. I haven't seen a thing of how Minten is playing with the Marlies, other than a few posts in the 'Prospects' thread, but if he can leverage his maturity and intelligence - which are his calling cards - enough to buy himself time to gain some experience, boy would that be a boost to the team.
An interesting line with Minten, Holmberg and Robertson. It could be Robertson's last go round as he'll have played with a number of centers without much success this year. Here too, should there be a bit of 'something' here, it would be another case of youth providing some needed spark for the team.
A lot will depend on Minten not getting caved on the dot.
