It is an interesting contrast between Darryl Sutter's AHL roster and Feaster's AHL roster.

Is it better to have a team full of 20-23 year old draftees and prospects - players with some shot at the NHL (even if it is a slim one),
or have a team with only your very best prospects, surrounded by AHL journeymen who likely never have a shot at the NHL, but will be good pro's for the young guys to emulate, and help the young guys learn to win.
