You said "The only thing that we do know is that to learn the NHL game, you need to play in the NHL." But now you're justifying it by saying some rookies are better than others, as if a rookie never got better by playing hockey? Look at Giordano, who didn't become anywhere close to an NHL defenseman until after the AHL and even KHL, and still, didn't become a Norris candidate until years after being in the NHL. So according to your theory, he didn't learn anything until he played in the NHL?

Do you know anything about the human brain? You argue that identical twin experiments are needed to support the argument for junior-level development yet claim that NHL-level development is a proven fact even though it's just as baseless. You would make a terrible scientist!

Like I said, flawed logic
