There's an excellent late season slot in the schedules to get Stankoven & Bourque a pair of confidence boost/ tune up games in Texas.

March 29 - Texas & Dallas on the road

March 30 & 31 - both teams off

April 1 - Iowa @ Texas

April 2 - Iowa @ Texas

April 3 - Nashville @ Dallas

Not only would it be a perfect spot too tinker with depth call ups pre-playoffs, but it's also a top notch April Fools Day prank, with a purpose.

I recall that Bourque had a slow start to his first AHL season, coming out of the QMJHL. Could he be experiencing something similar as he acclimates to another jump up in competition? I do agree that a shot of self-confidence in the AHL could give him a boost in coming back up again. It worked for Hintz. It worked for Harley.
