Yeah, it has been a long time since we've developed players in the minors. Nearly all of our prospects that panned out in the past decade went straight into the NHL (or only played a few games in the AHL).

And it’s such and underrated aspect of an organization, because saving money on say a Pettersson over a Forbort or a Raty over a Blueger just adds that much more to the spend at the top of the lineup.
 
while he did impress me at WJC, I was a little worried when he didn't make the Orebro team and subsequently loaned away. turns out it was completely unfounded, and worked to his advantage in development.

Im still "wait and see", but hes been so obviously good out of left field that I dont know what to think, looks like there is no need for Braden Schneider afterall.
