I know that's common wisdom, but is it still true? Guys like Phaneuf, Bouwmeester, Doughty, Green and Myers all peaked very early in their careers and then plateaued or regressed in their mid-20s. Jones looks like a great player, but I can't help but be a little skeptical after all the recent D-men who have burst onto the scene and then taken a step back.
