Voodoo said:If I was a GM, no prospect would ever play on my team until he was 20. It just makes no sense to waste two years of service on a player who could continue to develop in the minors. I want this player on my team when he's 26 and 27, not 18 and 19.

Totaly disagree. You make your decision on a roster spot based solely on the players in question and NOT by some arbitrary age requirements which could hinder both your team and player. We could name player after player who fit this mold, but really don't need to as any blanket rule set forth such as this would prove to be an ignorant rule.Voodoo said:If I was a GM, no prospect would ever play on my team until he was 20.

A fringe guy who may not get much playing time and would benefit from juniors? Certainly. But base it on the individual and not on his age. What would he learn by going back to juniors if he already dominated and has the ability to play well, get his ice time, help his team and learn on the fly. You simply don't make such a rule that is an absolute as doing so shows a certain degree of ignorance in any GM. You ice your best team based on the players and not thier age.
