Prospect Info: Sean Malone (2013, 159th) – '18-19: Rochester #14 (AHL)

If he didn't have so many injuries already he'd be higher on my board. It's not hard to see him being an NHLer if he can get past that.

I doubted his ability before. But if he could ever stay healthy I could see him make it as a shaw type agitator with some skill. But the injuries are endless. And the nhl is less gentle than ncaa.

The Sabres have never had an injury prone, agitator, local player before

How about Sean Malone? Nice numbers this year, finally healthy. A quality faceoff guy who plays a mean game when needed.

I prefer that he gets signed. Speed, tenacious no-quit worker who you'd like to see groomed into a solid AHL player and go from there.

I think he was always getting a contract. He's a bottom-6 player in the NHL, but he's certainly getting a contract.

He has always played at a level demanding a contract, the only issue being frequent injuries. He is a legit NHL prospect even if his upside is limited. It'd be really strange if he didn't get offered a contract, especially since he is local.

I agree.....his injuries has hurt him production/numbers. I would be really surprised if he didn't get a contract.
