It's a massive step up to the NHL.. Even if it sounds like a leaf thing to do, I can't see them risking a great potential future player to the heartless meat grinder that is the NHL Playoffs. See you in time Cowan!

He’s playing great but you can’t just throw him into the line up like that especially in the playoffs

Dude its take awhile to adjust to NHL. He is nowhere near ready and would destroy his confidence. Let him cook for awhile.
