No. The myth here is that this is something that the Red Wings continue to do; also it is highly dubious that they have been especially effective with those prospects they have "over-ripened."
Certainly, there is value in keeping some players longer than others in the AHL to learn and grow the game, but this is not something the Red Wings invented, nor is their handling of prospects all that different from virtually every other NHL team.
