Again, fans and the total lack of patience

Makar played 17 MPG in the playoffs as a 19YO.
Hughes played 18MPG as a 18YO in 5 games and 21MPG as a YO in his rookie year.
It's not a lack of patience; it's putting players of that caliber in a position to succeed. I guess the Avs and Canucks should have been patient as well.
By your standards Tkachuk and Monny would have been sent back to the OHL and brought along in the AHL.
