Any reason to question our AHL system, regarding the growth and development of the prospects going thru our AHL system?

Some may point to Jankowski as the counter argument, but i suppose his NCAA experience has played a large role in preparing him for pro hockey.

This is a few camps in a row where our AHL prospects just simply don't seem like they have progressed to a point where they can actually play in the NHL....
I don't know what the problem is. Drafting? Development? Twenty year long run of bad luck?

The popular opinion around here seems to be the drafting has been terrible but has improved since Sutter left. That is false. If anything, drafting development has gotten worse.

Good work by Treliving to convert draft picks into core pieces like Hamilton and Harmonic. Very unlikely any of the picks given up would be players of that caliber.
