WWYDW: Would you rest a player to play Rasmus Andersson?

Rasmus Andersson hasn’t played a game since being emergency recalled and subsequently being listed as a regular recall now. There was that one really close chance of him playing… but then it didn’t happen. We know that the third pairing isn’t exactly the most glamorous or incredibly agile pairing on the team with Matt Bartkowski and Deryk Engelland so there’s an opportunity there for Andersson possibly: the rationale being, you’re adding another puck-moving defensman with an offensive upside to give you an added punch down this final stretch. To contrast that, the unhealthy enamored feelings Glen Gulutzan has for handedness on each pairing probably quells that.
