since Skinner, Staal, Rask etc. don't seem to have reached their potential that was expected when they were younger.
Staal, sure, but that statement makes little sense with respect to Skinner or Rask.
Skinner's one of not many forwards who are easy money for 30+G per season, and he's rounded out his game to silence his critics. Was anyone expecting him to be more than one of the better goal scorers in the league with adequate two-way play?
Rask... I mean he was a 2nd round pick who didn't make all that much noise in juniors. Who was expecting him to be more than a regular top-6 center at the NHL level?
I am confused.
