I hope he does well. He was developing nicely for a rookie dman. I think he will be a fine NHL dman

Trotz/management just don't have any patience or can't be bothered to develop young talent. If they're not stars from day 1 they get put on the bench.. This team carries on like it's full of options or something. :poop:

Bingo. Look what Pittsburgh and Sullivan do with their talent at WBS. Now, granted they may have more talent, but they seem to endlessly integrate their "kids" from WBS into their NHL club. Hell, they won the Cup last year without the #1 DMan for most of the year.

Only one other team in the league had as many rookies playing that number of games. Also the last time the Caps had that many rookies playing that amount of games was back in the 80s.

It’s priorities.

Not only are the priorities “the big trade”, where the ever incompetent GMBetaMale routinely trades top round picks and prospects for “popular trades” that abject failure and trash. .

But even if thrust kept him Dickless and Betamake would just stock the team with Eurotrash and puckmovers while selling the “Have A Chance” Kook Aid to their VIP section lackies. . .
