That's absolute nonsense. I promise, no matter what my job is, if you're my boss and you treat me like that, I'm out. Not only will I not work for you, I'm gonna make it my secondary mission in life to do everything I can to stand in between you and your success.
You don't seem to realize you're talking about a human being. One who is young, proud and legitimately wants to be the best hockey player in the world. He probably won't be, but if that's because the coach won't let him, you better believe it will very quickly come down to a choice between keeping Laine or Maurice. And for what? To keep Kulikov for 1 more season?
As a person who owns a business that employs people, I sincerely hope you don't.

In general I think the Jets will have to walk a fine line. Mark and Blake are the main guys and rightfully so but I am almost certain Laine, Connor, Ehlers, Trouba ect. see themselves as go to guys and will demand a larger role regardless of what the coach thinks. If they don't get it in WPG they would likely be offered it on plenty of other teams. Balanced TOI next season is going to be crucial imo. Young people don't have patience and it would suck to loose great players because their ego was hurt and they feel undervalued.
So just don't tell your employee you are doing that. Problem solved.
Besides, whatever they are doing, it is for the good of the team. I don't think there will be a problem in any case, everyone knows the tight cap situation the Jets are in, and everyone wants the same thing, the Stanley Cup.
But again, I don't actually KNOW anything so just give it a rest now please.

You cut Laine's ice time and take him off the power play (how else are you going to limit his production?) and you think he won't know why you're doing it?
You pay people what they're worth if you want to keep them. If Laine is 10% of the team's success, pay him 10% of the cap.
On a personal note, if you don't like being argued with you could consider taking a more flexible position and be more open to changing your point of view. Or you could simply not share your opinion, thus taking away the opportunity for people to annoy you by pointing out the flaws they perceive in your reasoning.

Maybe I'm not doing the 'rithmatic right, but doesn't coming in at #91 make Little damn near a 4th line center?
That Corsica chart is interesting. Checked out the site to see how other teams faired. Surprised the TML rankings to be honest. Marner #36 RW?

Marner is actually listed as C, he's #36 among centers
would be higher if he was listed as RW, #24 between DeBrincat and Rantanen
