I don't know, but Stone was apparently a poor skater who developed into a pretty good player.
Brad Richards was also a bad skater and developed into a damn good player.

In the old USA NTDP locker room in Ann Arbor there was a saying when the players walked in .....
" TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OWN DEVELOPMENT "
I think it speaks for itself.
With that said, I know that teams have skills coaches and give you all the resources but you have to use them and work hard to get better in the off season , mornings before practice , etc.

Does anyone have info why Connor Dewar hasn't got any games yet?
I was excited to see how he plays in Iowa. It's no good to sit out and not develop.

We're all right there with you.
Think the speculation is they want a winning team and a winning culture in Iowa over developing players, so they're leaning on the vets as of now. Don't know if/when that'll change. It's really disappointing from a fan point of view though.

Anyone watch SHL? How has he looked?
Ten games without points looks bad even for a defenseman.

I'm guessing that Iowa is just getting a baseline for their team with the vets right now. The kids will get their playing time.
I want to see Dewar too. Maybe he just needs awhile to adjust to the team, systems, etc?

He's perfect for the Wild ..... another guy who can't finish !!!
Hard to get the rookies in when we have such a deep team and we are sitting on top of the standings.

Thank you, sweet rabbit
To be fair, the whole BC team got shutout last night. I was just happy to see him centering the 2nd line again and doing well from the faceoff dot.
Yeah, my disappointment isn't really with him. From what I've seen he's fabulous. But without being able to see the games I crave the satisfaction of gaudy stat lines.

4 SOGs, no points.
Apparently, he practiced on the 1st line on Tuesday/Wednesday with Bitten and Dumont. I didn't listen to any of the game last night so I don't know if that's who he ended up playing with. They hadn't played since last Saturday so I assume he was taking Gerry's spot. Hope he continues to play, the have another game tonight so we'll see.
