He's not a young prospect.

Comparing Foo and Caggiula to Czarnik is not the right way to look at things.

Czarnik could play awful in the NHL and quickly flame out but he's a totally separate situation
I hope you are right. But Boston did have him and chose to not play him. Is that a bit of a hit the breaks moment?
Being older isn't helping him either.
