Lol, what a dumb article.

Take this season, for example. Dustin Wolf is a 23-year-old who had 18 games of NHL experience and 141 games in the American League going into this season. How are 19-year-old Matvei Michkov and 18-year-old Macklin Celebrini supposed to compete with that?

Maybe because goalies generally take longer to develop and even if they do have a ton of experience and have dominated at lower leagues, it's still nowhere near guaranteed that they'll be good at the NHL level, you moron? Same thing goes for forwards and defensemen too, but I guess sure, let's make another award for the whole 5 or 10 teenagers who play significant games in any given NHL season...
