Pure old school ignorance not playing Staurt - shameful if you ask me.

Hey, if the kid gets lit up, we'll blame the coach, just like we blame the coach every time Koskinen gets lit up. OK, we don't, but second-guesser Tippett can't see that.

If Stuart plays a great game, and impresses, that would be a major embarrassment to the management. Not part of the season's planning, no one would get credit except the kid, the press would have a positive story out of Edmonton- UNACCEPTABLE.

That said, I think he gets demolished if he plays.
