While it’s taken some time to get our third pair up and playing regularly in the NHL, I can’t help but speculate what their careers would look like if they were drafted by a franchise that didn’t take the time needed to develop.
Obviously, some players can step in at 18, but it’s rare to see it in defensemen.
I felt a little impatient with these two over the last few years, often forgetting their age.
So happy to see that we have a system as an organization, and the result is we have a few players graduating now from it.
