So Bennett isn't developing anymore? Or Gaudreau? Or Monahan, Hamilton or Ferland?
You make it to the NHL and you're good to go?
You don't think other teams are continuing to develop goalies at the NHL level by slowly giving them more games and tougher competition while continuing to work with them at practice?
Agree to disagree then I guess.
