He played 3:07 last night but his first call up he played something around 2:54..why call him up then if he plays only 3 minutes..just leave that spot open and fill it with a player already on the roster..make someone from the first 2 lines take that spot.You go through all that and call him up for him to play 3 minutes.Thats all you need him for is 3 minutes?It fathums me.

Thats all you need him for is 3 minutes?It fathums me.Not many rookies play more than 3 minutes per game. Put them out there more than that, and inexperience at that level could lead to things like hooking penalties that cost the team a goal... 3 minutes per game is really quite impressive if you think about it, a lot more players play in minor pro a year or more before making the jump to the NHL, than those that jump straight there from junior.
