Is this too much for players so young in their careers? Is this the hockey equivalent of Dusty Baker driving his pitchers into the ground with excessive innings and in doing so, limiting their potential (i.e. Mark Prior)? I understand it's necessary in Lalonde's mind because they are really the only two effective D-men on his roster, but how much will this affect their development?
(I know it's kind of an unanswerable question until it happens, but what do you think? Is the worry unfounded?)
Ha if only I knew. I’m not really sure there’s been a dedicated study of this but the Tyler Myers Sabres era comes to mind although I think both Seider and Edvinsson are far more talented
