Dobson should either play regularly on right side or in junior.

I agree I think Mayfield should play his off side with him and that should be our top 6 going toward

But how would Dobson going down to juniors help his development?

How is him being scratched most of the time and not playing help his development?

He would play a ton of minutes instead of 5-8 minutes on Islanders per week. That is destroying his development.

I don't think the way they are handling Dobson has hindered his development at all. In the handful of games he's played, he's looked amazing. Admittedly, I wasn't able to watch the Leafs game, but from what I've read from Isles writers he had another great game.

Also, from what others have said, Dobson played a good amount of LD in Juniors, so he's not unfamiliar with it. Whereas the guys in the NHL haven't played much (if at all) on their opposite sides. It's not a great scenario to have, but I think the kid has done a great job so far when he's played.
