I feel for Schultz because the one person to blame is his agent. The Ducks new he wasn't ready and wasn't yet ready to break the NHL club.
This is what the problem with owners/agents (which I guarantee Katz has a lot of involvement), but most scouts, coaches, probably say lets take a pass, but because it's essentially a free market to claim someone they go well lets try get them. Then the bidding starts, the value is elevated, and what your left with is junk.
The funny thing is that (you use this tactic in securities analysis) if everyone is going for something it doesn't increase it's value, it's value is reflective already in what it is - meaning Schultz was extremely overrated but much like Eakins Mact looked like he was finding a diamond in the rough. It's sad for the fact that the kid was playing in North America and any scout out there could have told him what he is worth.
