I can't think of a time when the depth in our prospect pool was as good as it is now, other than in the 80's. We have a lot of quality in our players 23 and under. Back in the late nineties,and early 00's, we had quite an exciting time waiting for youngsters like Tcazchuk, Fata, Saprykin, Krahn, and Regehr to develop-but only one came out of that group. Tre and the scouting staff have done a great job of finding gems in the draft, and developing those players (which is something we had a hard time doing the previous 25 yrs).
