Hahaha, I saw that argument. It's funny because he really is a great skater, and when he was 16 or so, he was being compared against Doughty and people thought they would be equal level players.. It's interesting how things turn out.
I agree with what you said about Schroeder, and I think he is just about NHL ready, he either needs a solid NHL mentor to play with or some more AHL time, but he'll get there. It'll be interesting to see how everything goes this fall - not counting a lock out of course (knock on wood).
