If Hart is the best goalie of the three through camp, he should be the starter. If he proves to be not-ready-for-primetime after ten games or so, send him to LV. And if he proves to be the best of the three goalies as the season goes along, don't send him to LV. I don't get all the hand-wringing; it really is just this simple.

I've never bought the notion that a young player's psyche will be ruined forever if things don't go well in his first season(s). It's called "learning on the job" and that's how most people become great at stuff, by learning from the best.

The claims that previous top prospects got "ruined" by playing at a young age are totally unprovable. It's more likely that every player who ever came up at a young age then had an unfulfilling career was going to have an unfulfilling career no matter when they came up; they just didn't have it. The idea that an extra year playing with worse players magically transforms a player into a career-long stud is hooey.

And the guys who come up at a young age and struggle for a couple years before things click, well, they probably would have struggled for a couple years before things clicked no matter what age you brought them up. This is the norm. So why not work out the kinks at a younger age so they get a longer career at peak level?

Different sport, but if the Phillies weren't so ridiculously cautious with Chase Utley and Ryan Howard and didn't wait until they were both 26 years old to start their full-time MLB careers, one of two things could have happened: (1) coming up early would have ruined them and they'd have had unimpressive careers, (2) they'd both be strong Hall of Fame candidates with the few extra seasons of top-level stats. Which do you think is more likely?

Hey, if Steve Mason can start for Columbus as a 20-year-old and play 61 games and win the majority of them, it's absurd to say Carter Hart can't. Over 50 goalies have played double-digit NHL games at age 20 or younger. And Hart probably has a better resume at this age than all of them.

Yet with all that said, I know virtually all of my fellow Flyers fans are afraid to bring him up this year, and maybe half don't even think he should be up next year. And I know there's almost 0% chance Hextall keeps him on the Flyers to start this season, and probably less than 20% Hextall brings him up at all.

And to me, that sucks. I'm not saying making Hart the starter guarantees anything, but I am saying that removing Hart from contention absolutely guarantees that this is going to be just another Flyers season with sub-mediocre goalies who ruin any chances we have of winning anything.

I'm more than willing to take the chance on the kid, if he earns it outright in camp.

You know who would agree with me? Only the best goalie in Flyers history: Bernie Parent. The guy wrote a book on taking risks in life in order to achieve greatness. He gets it.
