Was always a high end offensive dman in his youth years. Was on that high end 04 Blades team. Injury issues have obv plagued him…or he hit a ceiling (like most do at some point). Panzer in a similar position.
Bubs and Team are going to have some pretty tough decisions. Some local boys struggling in juniors. Good thing is they’ll have another year in the ushl. The BC might be a good option/change of scenery
When 17 “forgot” to cover that guy out front I was like oh boy. We get on squirts for that. His weak backhand to clear the zone later in the game was terrible as well. Should have just eaten it on the wall.
similar to 25, not sure what the point of leaving would be. I’d spend another year developing.
He has no business unless he’s already graduated. He’s not a bad player but pro hockey is not forgiving. I’d stay and develop another year. He’s young, no need to rush things. Unless he doesn’t like the direction the program is going.
I get it, but anyone who knows hockey sees that these are point blank shots. Goalies aren’t saving the day but the shots we do allow are point blank. Dzone coverage is atrocious.
He’s a third rd draft pick, he can’t just not play. He should have played in the ushl last year and this should be his frosh year. But him not playing when kleven is out says a ton.
Freshman coming in, portal goalie who’s had decent numbers, ridiculously old team, very experienced D core, very high preseason rankings from those “in the know”, very high expectations from the coaching staff…etc.
Never a is solid, kind of a grinder. Plays hard. Looks really similar to his older bro. Guessing he’ll be similar to that. Not high end but will have a role.
