Frost and Farabee have proven to be on a completely different level than the other prospects.
If our coaches/management can't see that or think that any performance in training camp or preseason is a valuable enough sample to decide differently, then we're in real trouble.
There's no way Rubtsov is the one who makes the team out of camp without a hefty dose of incompetence. It doesn't matter if he looks like a god and the others look awful... it's not real NHL games and it's not large enough of a sample to accurately judge. We have way too much other information that gives a reason to doubt it's the right move and a couple meaningless practices and mixed squad preseason games isn't enough to override that. Especially when you consider he just missed nearly a whole season with an injury.
