Really?
Nystrom, Moss and McHardToSpell are all graduated US prospects -- maybe our best area of drafting of the prior generation of players.
The current generation of prospects only has what, 3 US guys (if you dont include Mitch Wahl who is a US-born WHL prospect), none of whom are done school. NCAA players tend to take longer to develop and need at least a year or two in the AHL so they are all at minimum 2 years from being busts.
