It's gonna be so frustrating when he is called up and sits on the bench instead of playing 2 out of every 3 games in Rochester.
I would leave him in Rochester for at least a couple additional weeks for a couple of reasons:
- As you indicate, he won't get as much game time in Buffalo. With UPL having won the starter's role, for now, Levi's playing time will be limited.
- I think it makes sense to give Comrie one last shot in Buffalo. He has been good in his limited time in Rochester. His contract is up at the end of the year and he is a UFA. He has had good, if brief, stretches to start each of the past two NHL seasons, and things fell apart both years following an injury.
I think UPL should start 2 of 3 or 3 of 4 after the break with Comrie getting the other starts initially. Then let's see where we are in a couple of weeks.
