It's not a case of scout being wrong. It's a case of there's only so many NHL jobs and tons of prospects so most won't make it.
But if the basis if your assessment is "most prospects fail" I don't view that as being really great insight or reason to slam someone for optimism.

How many times are you going to ignore that I said numerous times that I liked the signing and had no problems with that approach of bringing such guys in? To a degree of course as we have other prospects that need attention too.



My beef isn't with Foo or Czarnik or Mangipane. My beef is with posters putting them on the team's top lines etc. and getting all pissy when someone tells them to curb their enthusiasm a bit. That is all I was talking about.
