We know talented NHL prospects can compete in the top Euro leagues against men. How would you guys compare the level of competition in the USA's NCAA Div 1 or Canadian CHL against playing in a European Second Division league (like the Swedish Allsvenskan or Czech WSM Liga)? Could a prospect be better served playing there against older players?
For instance, in Pastrnak's draft year, he put up 24 points in 36 games for Sodertalkje SK before going 25th overall, but I don't think anyone expected him to jump to the NHL so quickly.
Thoughts?
