Sure. The Sens are "just taking their time with Brown"
It’s not just brown. Your narrative is incorrect

Makar, a year older than Sanderson was, went 4th and did the same thing.Anything less than a MVP level season will be disappointing. 5th overall picks don't typically take more than 1 year to get into a NHL game.
Go ahead and name some other examples then.
Literally every prospect except Stutzle this year.

You might want to check your facts and Dorion's history with our 1st round picks.
And using Logan Brown s am example who's tilting on bust territory doesn't count.
It's going to be interesting to see what Sanderson can do next season at ND considering the pieces that have now signed to NHL contracts.

Not to mention both Chabot and White spent two seasons in college/Junior hockey before stepping right into a pretty solid team with good mentors like EK and Stone. They became regulars in their Draft + 3 season.Thomson, JBD, Greig, Brown and now Sanderson played or will likely play at least 2 seasons prior to coming to the NHL
Tkachuk and Stützle came straight away (and have been fairly successful doing so)
There's also Bowers who we traded, but I'm not really seeing a pattern of rushing guys here; the two guys who did jump right in were both ready and look great.
You could probably add White and Chabot to the discussion as while drafted by Murray, Dorion was in charge when they were brought into the NHL mix, Chabot seems to have been handled fine, White didn't become a regular till he was 21, and didn't sign until he completed his 2nd college year after getting drafted.

Agreed, it's going to be quite a challenge for him to lead a deprived squad.
I’m getting that vibe as well as I think back to Phillips, Redden, Fisher, Havlat, Hossa et al coming into the league. There is a lot of resonance with Bernard-Docker, Sanderson, Pinto, Batherson, Stutzle, etc.I’m hopefully for a 19 year old Redden type impact next Spring.

ftfyI imagine UND will get some help with new recruits, i think Scott Morrow is a pretty highly regarded D that has committed to UND for next year. Hes1expected to go wherever the sens pick i think.
