Yet Jiricek is struggling to get ice time this year on a team off to a worse start then us.
Jiricek is no further or "better" developed than Slaf after last year,
the premise that it was "good for jiricek" is faulty & inconsistent with the standards applied to Slaf
of course, if you look at Jiricek's play & utilization this year and consider it a positive reflection of his D1 year, consistency would be to see Slaf in the same, if not better, light...
the double standards come from poor reasoning, thick bias, or
