Rocking 'The Stone'
I always enjoy entertaining other views. Consequently, I wanted to confirm my thoughts so I went through all the teams in the NCAA tournament to review transfers from D1.
You have to realize that if a player goes D1 they played either in the USHL, BCHL or NAHL, which means they have talent. The average age per league USHL (18.72) BCHL (18.67) AND NAHL (19.7)
On the other point you brought up Boots. Interesting and somewhat proves my point.
In the 2011 – 2012 season, he was fourth in points on the team (28). After leaving Oswego he has played the following 10 years in the pros.
The players above him in points:
Whitelaw: 1 season in pros
Moodie: Never played in the pros
Rodrigues: 5 seasons in the pros
Boots: 10 Seasons and still playing
Wonder what these other coaches saw in Boots?

So is it every Oswego Transfer and recruit who just excelled in juniors now can't produce or is it coaching to the how the game is played in the current enviroment?
