Gillies is dominating older competition. He's way past where any of those prospects were at age 19.
Yes I do understand how rare it is and I am not saying he will do it, but he could.
I'm just not sure franchise goalie is anywhere near the top of the list of this organizations needs, with or without Kirpusoff here.
