Jay Thompson said:Incorrect. It's not a matter of debate. Bluechip has always meant 'surefire NHL'er' or as close as you can get to it.
You're 100% INCORRECT there.
Bluechip most certain doesn't mean 'surefire NHLer', it means a star prospect who's very likely to make it to NHL and have star-player potential.
Auld most certainly isn't a bluechipper and same can be said for several players in this thread.
