Well I for one don't want five years of suckitude and if one of these players can aid in accelerating the re-build then yes, it should be one point of many that the organization will consider (and certainly not last the of them). Do you think Murray Edwards wants five more years of missing the playoffs? Do you think Feaster or anyone else wants to miss the payoffs for five more years? Do the fans? Answer to all is no.
Of course a team is going to take a prospects readiness to play at the NHL level into consideration. The faster these young hockey players make an impact on the NHL roster the better. That being said they shouldn't rush them if they aren't ready yet either.
