Former top prospect and first round pick hits the waiver wire

The relationship between team and prospect can sometimes be a difficult one based on the expectations they have from one another. From the prospect's standpoint, they want the team to be invested in them and to provide them with plenty of opportunity and runway. From the team's standpoint, they want the player to give it everything he has during his development period and earn every second of ice time and force their hand before they grant those opportunities.
