He is a long term project. If we get impatient and bump him up too fast we will definately bust him and bust him big time.

I was under the impression that the NCAA is actually a better league than the CHL. The players are older and more developed.
There certainly are argument to be made about which league develops players better, but I thought that skillwise the NCAA is hands down better than the CHL. It really comes down to the age of the players (18-24 vs. 16-20)
