Your original post, however, included: "My hope for JP is that they just keep him on the 3rd line. Don't move him up when he has a good period or even game. Just keep him on the 3rd line for the rest of his time as an Oiler."
That last line particularly is what I was 100% disagreeing with. I would not advocate for "promoting JP too quickly." I was opposing (and would continue to oppose) the perspective that advocates for "never promoting JP regardless of what he does."

I should have worded that line better. I don't see him being with the Oilers past this season and he might not even last the full season. This isn't me bashing the guy. It's just clear it's not working for both sides. I am sure the team is thinking they are not getting what they had hoped for especially considering his salary. I am sure JP isn't where he would like to be and hasn't produced what he expected. I think a break up is the best course of action for both sides and both sides probably welcome it. So my comment about staying as a 3rd liner is in my opinion because the team has to try to build him up as much as possible in the time they have left so by keeping him down the line up a little, I believe there is a better chance he can have some success not having to play against other teams best lines and best defenders shift after shift like he would playing with McD or Leon and there would be less pressure for him to score. He himself admitted that when you play with McD or Leon, you are expected to score and it's weighing on him.
