How many times have you seen Hickey or Mattsson play? I haven't seen either of them. Haven't even seen highlights of them to judge whether they can do anything at any level of play. I've seen Gilmour and I've seen him be a dominant defenseman for one of the best defensive teams in college hockey. I have a real hard time believing that a kid from the AJHL or a guy that just dropped like a rock in the most recent draft are going to be vaulting ahead of players who have proven their ability to play at a high level in leagues superior to those these two were just drafted from. Don't these guys have to prove anything before we crown them better prospects than guys who have shown growth and met the organization's expectations?
