You are welcome to your opinion, and you could be right, but I think Knight's lack of development as a goal scorer had almost everything to do with his role, and where he was asked to play. I find it very strange that a guy like Griffith would even be given the chance to supplant a guy that scored 30+ in his draft year even thought his diabetes went undiagnosed for the the first half of the season.

Knight played Top Gun with Kadri, then upped his point total the following year, only to be placed in what was primarily a checking role in his last OHL season. I know the Hunters value that aspect of the game, so it could be that, or it could be more about politics?

You obviously don't think Griffith is better than Knight, so why was he elevated above him in Jrs? As pros, I don't think it will even be close?
