I agree with him fwiw. The way XB has been handled is very poor. Look at spring training, when he had a chance to skate with high IQ players, he outproduced his AHL rates, and against better players. He had a better camp than Lavoie despite being younger and taking some time to find his footing imo
If XB is given a shot in the NHL everyone might be wondering where the offense has come from. He is smart AF, a detailed two way player, has filthy mitts, and can make fast plays with no space, its a very translatable skillset to the NHL, but he can't really skate in the bottom six so his shot is likely on another team imo
