Anyone else disappointed in how Timashov has progressed ( or lack thereof) than just me? I expected more offensive upside from him
Not at all.
He definitely didnt exceed expectations, but this is the transition to the AHL for most guys. Most 20 year old AHL rookies DONT light the roof on fire. We were honestly spoilt with Nylander coming in at 18 and averaging almost a PPG.
The AHL is a damn tough league and generally first year players struggle, especially if they dont consistently get top 6 minutes.
Now, next year is where you hope he gets a little bigger and faster, and then produce at more of a top 6 clip
