Mr. Y had an opinion and backed it up with some stats. Its always easier to poke holes in someone else's opinion but he provided the exact data requested. You have to respect that.
IMO the jury is still out on the ability of the current regime to develop players. We haven't seen much yet but it's still a little early. Although its true that players called up didn't look out of place, I do think we can hope for more than a farm system that can supply short term injury call-ups.
This year could be telling. Its possible Stockton will have 4 first round forwards on its roster as well as similar number of 2nd round picks and our prize goaltending prospect. Its fair to say expectations should be higher. It will of course be even better if some of those players make the team out of camp.
