Zach Bogosian

It's crazy how closely the careers of Bogosian and Schenn have paralleled each other.

- top-5 picks
- quickly to the NHL as teenagers on bad teams, impact rookies who appeared to have a bright future
- stagnated on those bad teams, were exposed as limited players, but still overpaid and overplayed and ineffective in too big of a role for years
- went through several organizations before bottoming out on a bottom-feeder and appearing nearly finished.
- career rejuvenation when put into a #6-7 role on an elite TB team

Schenn didn't go through a phase of half-a-dozen years where he was being paid like a #1 defenseman to play 40-50 games and be visibly laboring in the rest of them, all to take the off-season off and do it all over again starting the next training camp.
