An overage year is what prepped Xhekaj to jump straight into the NHL?My issues are drafting him 1st overall and keeping him in the NHL when he's clearly not ready. Arber got an overage year in OHL after signing with Montreal so I think he's actually a good example how development doesn't really happen by getting reps at a level you aren't ready at.
Why don’t more teams send their picks back to the CHL for their overage season ?
Should the Habs send Beck back to the OHL after this season?
