Heinen will be fine
I knew Cehlarik would be good, played against men at a younger age. He's in great shape, good size, fluid skater and can develop a better first step with time and a great trainer he affords with a new NHL contact
The drafting is starting to catch up
Cehlarik > Heinen ... like much better
But celly is no ordinary rookie... poised beyond his age
Game looks slow to him, which is a great thing
Doesn't Celly remind you guys of Peter Nedved ??
Have no idea how Cehlarik would have looked under Clode,or Heinen under Cassidy.
Like a robot.
I wonder. Would Clode's demand of system adherence have shown us a different Cehlarik? Probably.
Look at the way the team is playing under Cassidy and that will answer your question!
I remember some scholar on this board saying poor Clode couldn't make Chicken salad
From Chicken crap! Well don't look now but Cassidy has just accomplished that unattainable feat.
Did anyone notice that Adam MC Quade was the sniper on our first goal last night - could you imagine Clode seeing him pinch that far down the wall - he would have had a stroke.
Yes that was unusual for sure . I am not sure I like McQuaid or K Miller taking risks like that although it has worked for them so far , but if they want to unleash Krug , C Miller and even Chara , I say , go for it !
Sent back to Providence?
I imagine it's just so he can continue to get some reps in while the big boys are on their mandated "break"...
Also gives them a roster spot to make a deal, but I hope they don't leave him there when the dust is settled. He looks like an NHL player and they should continue to cultivate that.
