Its not just the Dunn benching by itself, if indeed he will be benched, but roster decisions as a whole. Blias, Barbashev and Kyrou getting 10 minutes with Thomas getting extremely shafted in minutes, Schmaltz getting benched in game 2, now Dunn potentially benched, Kyrou not out in situations 4v4 or 3v3 where he would thrive, etc. Yeo created a team that relied heavily on youth, and now he is pulling back on it. We cannot shelter all 7 youngsters when they have a bad game or the game gets tight. We have to let them play through slumps, and play in tough situations. If not, we might as well just send them down and call up vets. We are sticking in bad players with experience over good inexperienced players. Its not making us better, and its not helping our good young players get the experience. Its still early, so we'll see where it goes, but I do not want to see a repeat of how they treated Barbashev last year, jerking him around the line-up for every mistake and calling him out in the media.
