I'm starting to think Pateryn isn't ever gonna make it here... We don't have any RH dman except for Subban and Weaver (whatever) and through all these call ups he never ever got a shot and he seems to have been the most consistent player for the dogs this year... Plus, he'll be 24 next year... I guess he's just not good enough and never will be, cause I can't see any reason why he hasn't gotten his shot yet, really he seems to be everything this team would need on the right side...
As far as Beaulieu and Tinordi are concerned, I think they're being handle very well actually. It kind of reminds me of how I was taught to practice as a classical musician.. when you want to reach the next level or learn a very difficult piece that is over your current abilities, you try it slow first, very slow, nice and easy. Then, once in a while, you up the tempo, then you go back to slow, then back up, then back down, and so on and so forth, until it becomes so natural than you don't have to worry about being overmatched and if you make a mistake during a performance, you're not freaking out, you're still in control. Well I think the hans are having the same approach with these 2 young guys.. Defence is very hard to learn and the game is so fast, so they're letting them have a taste of the real thing here and there and eventually, they'll catch up.
