While some will want to think the front office wanted to sit him, trying trade him, or Q was screwing with his mind.....</p>

The truth probably is that being on the road - he didn't want Julien putting Krejci or Bergeron's line out there against Leddy. At home, he can guard against that....not so much in Boston. As the game went on...it would have been harder to put him out there not getting regular shifts...so the right call was to go with 5 Dmen.</p>
</p>
At home, he can go back to getting him against the 3rd/4th lines. He'll probably get 10-12min next game...but matched up more favorably for Leddy/Hawks.</p>
yeah i didint notice leddy either, but i instantly knew it was for the better cuz hes so young. Only inkling of conspiracy theory i had was making him look worse for RFA sheeting ******* in the off season haha
but truly, hes still young and with the awesome Oduya/Rosi signings he can actually rest and watch the game rather than forced out as #4 or #5 in over his head like before...
