Except that wasn't how he was used at all in the preseason.
They didn't play him with Di Giuseppe/Dowling/Highmore/Dickinson types to see how he fit in the bottom-6. They put him on a top scoring line and played the living hell out of him in offensive situations all preseason. Again, he got substantially better minutes/looks than Garland did.
sometimes in life you realize that while your dad gives you plum opportunities that you haven't earned, the fact that he's not putting you the positions you could conceivably succeed in tells you that deep down he doesn't really believe in you.
oh wait, i'm on a hockey message board not my therapist's couch?
