Well, they have had a lot of players dramatically surpass pro expectations over the years as opposed to many more hyped college UFA's and draft picks who have flopped.

Ben Scrivens
Matt Moulson
Colin Greening
Riley Nash
Doug Murray
Ryan O'Byrne

Not a lot of college teams with six players in the NHL. And not one of those guys had any hype coming out of college except maybe Nash as a first rounder. And current players Joel Lowry (Dave's son) and Brian Ferlin are as sure-fire NHLers as I have seen there in the last 20 years. Plus Cole Bardreau who was on the US U20 team and draft eligible this year I believe.
