that's great and all but who's going to show that rookie how to be a professional in the league?
you have zero vet wide receivers are we really going to trust Sammy Watkins
who doesn't even play half the time?
and are we really going to put all the pressure on the world to be the number one when Sammy gets hurt eventually - GERBE!!!75PTS
Um, Coaching...they hired a very experienced staff.
Half these friggin players are coke heads
Remember we traded away a few guys that would have been in the AHL right now. Compher for example would probably be 1C down there right now if it weren't for RoR. Now that we aren't trading so many picks away I think we will see the farm team rise over the next couple years.
It would be unprecedented for us in this millennia, but I think guys like Pu, Borgen, Fitz, Murray, Hagel, and Stephens could all see significant time in the A. If that is the case, our team would be significantly better than it is now. - RhinoFan
Also Eichel and Reinhart if they were average first round picks they'd likely still be in Rochester too. Maybe not Reinhart, but Eichel almost surely in his second season
It's still the GM's responsibility to surround that hockey team with Talent even if it's a AHL
He supposed to develop those players not have them in a losing environment and not be embarrassed to go to work ever day
how does that help that player to be successful when he moves up when he's already adapted to losing? - GERBE!!!75PTS
Really? You're making that argument? The guy who wants the NHL team to tank?

All true as well. If it weren't for trades and a couple guys skipping the step...they'd probably be a pretty decent team. The log jam will probably start next year, but a couple from now, Rochester may have a couple good prospects to help get some Ws.
