Placing the responsibility of growth and development at the feet of the organization, is misplaced. It’s up to Zegras to expand and grow his skill set.

Noone has said his growth and development is the responsibility of the organization. Their responsibility is to determine if they see potential in a player or not. Just like any "buy low" situation. And if all it took was Coronato and 28th OA to land a 23 year old with legit top 6 potential then they'd be foolish to not atleast explore it. The guy has back to back 60+ pts seasons and barely played last year. That's far from being a bust. No one knows what he is at this point but that's why you pay scouts and a GM, to make those types of calls.
