it just seems flat out dumb to not play your first round pick goalie in the minors, knowing when you don't have a backup, to then hand the guy the backup job in the NHL.

like i'd love to hear the justification from the organization on that.
I'm annoyed at the awful job the organization does in developing players in general. As others have noted, ownership seems to have a fetish for playing aging, mediocre players over prospects. Frankly I'm getting tired of it. I can't stick up for the organization any more. They seem to be clueless as to how to develop a winning, talented team for the long term.
