Whoever can do the job better is the guy who should get the minutes.
If its Kopitar then welcome to the 2nd line.
Frankly I think people are geting a little crazy with this minutes per game thing.
Who cares if he is playing 15 minutes in the NHL or 20 down in the AHL?
We should only care if he is playing 5 minutes on the 4th line.
Otherwise 3rd line and up is good enough for a rookie of his talent.
