It's not BS, go back to before the Schneider trade. The belief that Wedgewood was going to backup Brodeur for a year and then be the full time starter and that was going to work out just fine was very real, and if it was coming from a minority, then that was an absurdly vocal minority. And over the past few years every time Kinkaid has a good game there are those that come out of the woods calling for Shero to cash in Schneider for value now. And it's not just a Devils thing, think of all the hot goalie prospects you've heard about over the years, all the guys that are the next big thing, how many of them actually end up being even average goalies?
You're preaching to the choir on what a good prospect Blackwood is, I'm one of the few that wasn't crying that the sky was falling when Shero took him instead of a forward in the 2nd round last year. But I've seen enough good goalie prospects fizzle to not lock him up as a stud. I see far too much confidence in prospects in general on this site.
