Well let’s look at something more relevant than an undersized prospect. Let’s talk about one of our recent first rounders and another teams second rounder.
Robertson on Dallas well was drafted in round 2 and got 47 points in 60 games in the AHL. He got promoted to the NHL for 3 games that initial season and then next season and on full time player in the NHL and never was sent back for more conditioning.
Pelletier had a first year of 62 points in 66 games and never got a sniff of the NHL. Now is in year two in the AHL and doesn’t look like he’s getting a shot this year either. Zary also pretty much got told preseason that in merit he should have made the team but they sent him down for contract reasons. Granteed is right in that we don’t put our picks in position to succeed.
