No, I agree.
However when compared to the likes of Mathias Bieber, Reto Suri and Dennis Hollenstein I think it may have been in the best interest of the Swiss to be able to string together somewheat of a talented first line.
To be honest, I am happy that he didnt go. He seems to have settled in Abbotsford now and maybe come to terms with the lengths he has to reach to get to the NHL. Who knows where his head would be at returning to Abbotsford dubbed an Olympian athlete.
