On a serious note, this article is highly speculative (Spector-lative?) especially Gramantik’s insights. It would have to be an unbelievably callous organization that would actively shave years off of a player’s career in the name of salvaging a middling season. Certainly, even the Oilers wouldn’t be THAT desperate, would they...?
They have been rushing and ruining prospects for a long time, so yeah, they would.
