I dont know if there is any argument that could be made to send him down... He has 8 points in 9 games played and while there has been a few instances where he looked a little shaky in the defensive zone i dont think this kid has any business down in juniors. Also the shaky defensive zone play is really just being nit picky and each game he has looked better and better as he adjusts to the NHL.

I completely agree! The first few games of the season he was a little shaky. But he has really improved in a short amount of time. His confidence is DEFINITELY high! His goal against Pitt,
he called for the puck from Stamkos!! Besides St. Louis, Idk if I have ever seen a player call for a pass from Stamkos while in the offensive zone lol Usually everyone thinks their job is done when they get the puck to Stamkos.
He has played sheltered minutes but definitely impressed. I think he'll stay up and his role/playing time will gradually increase!
