I think the roster in these games will be very close to the playoff roster.I think they sit him for three games. It's enough to get his batteries re-charged. He'll then probably play the rest of the season or maybe sit game 81 or 82.
The more I think about it the more it just makes sense to let him heal/rest properly now. Yeah, it sucks that he lost the Rocket but ultimately I just want to see him making noise in the PO's. The Jets have great window here to rest him and make sure he's 100% when the PO's kick in.
Edit: And now I see I accidentally voted 2 games.
Maurice has stated that the b2b with the Sens and Habs is where he will look to rest players (if they have 2nd locked up).
