Re: Boston University 2018-2019 - Still Alive!
Am I the only one who thinks these NHL teams are nuts signing a lot of these guys? What did some of these players show this year that they are near NHL caliber or ready for the pro level? Toss out the hype and the draft pick stuff - what players really showed us on the ice that they are ready for the next level? When did any of them dominate for long stretches? When did they stand out from their peers? Seriously?
You can blame the coach all you want but the performance of these players was crap for the most part and what they do get? Rewarded with NHL contracts. Just baffles my mind. I am all for kids advancing to the next level when they deserve it but many of these players are in for a rude awakening - you cant blame the coaches all the time and personal accountability will show up eventually. Cale Makar deserves to move to the next level, most of these guys dont.
So you can look at it like -
WOW!!! BU had 5 players sign pro contracts after the season - they know how to develop stud talent
or
WOW!!! BU had 5 players sign pro contracts and leave because they dont know how to develop stud talent.
