i think thats whats best for him. hes not ahl eligible right?

i wouldnt rush him. just that type of defender. those bigger guys need more time to learn. he wont have the natural ability to make up for a lot of bad habits the way a ghost will.

No he has at least one junior season left not count the over age year if they wanted to use it

i'm just throwing a number out there...my point was a significant amount of players could be replaced with "lesser" talent, and nobody would miss them or think the game had gotten worse.

The Coaches and their teammates would miss them.

Name one defenseman 6'6" or over who spent more than one yr out of the NHL after they were drafted in the first round?

The only one I can think of is Pronger, he jumped right to the show and look how he turned out.
