How does the game (or does the game) handle the pressures for teenagers in the NHL?

Is there a way you can help, or hurt, a prospects development by rushing them to the NHL?

Other than looking at their performance and game rating in pre-season games, is there any way (other than the star rating) to determine if a teenage prospect is "ready" for the NHL?

I'm just beginning my second season running an Expansion Team, and I have my first drafted prospects. I have a winger, drafted fourth overall and a defenseman, drafted in the second round, that, based on their ratings are good enough to play for my NHL team.

Does the game take into an account what is done with these prospects? Is there a risk not sending them back to Junior that their development could be hurt?

Thanks!
