At this point in the tilt, no Jet forward has more even strength ice time than Eric Tangradi.
Not saying anything about that, just saying it because I'm not sure how much I'll ever get to say that...also add that to the "better than Ryan Stone" list. Oh Generation X...
Do you think the Jets are going to give him the Chris Bourque treatment and if nothing surfaces cut bait at the end of the season?

If he finds success somewhere else great but when you're trying to say Shero made a mistake or he was mismanaged in a roundabout way and the only thing you can come up with is hits then you're just in denial.

I'm more concerned with the way HCDB manages (or mismanages?) young players. It's no different with Despres going in and out of the lineup. I hate seeing young players being scratched or underutilized instead of developing with larger roles in the minors.

Bad luck for him. Finally gets a chance with a NHL team and this happens.

Most teams don't just play rookies for the sake of playing rookies.
The majority of the time, said rookies are playing every night because the team has no other options.

He hasn't played more than 15 minutes a game.

Conacher got 14 and change tonight
Tarasenko got just over 12
Yakupov thru 2 periods has 10:35
seems to be a trend with rookies.

As for his PP time, most teams don't have Crosby, Malkin, and Neal on their PP. You want those guys out there as long as possible.
