Anyone else annoyed by this? Vancouver has a worse track record recently of developing prospects, so I'm not sure how their 'system' of developing players is going to be better than ours.
When a 1st round picks development stalls you can look at it like the player hasn't been progressing as it was envisioned when he was drafted or that he hasn't been a good fit with the organization. Canucks fans can throw their hat on the latter but at the end of the day nothing matters except Baertchi's play and that's what's going to dictate if he develops.
