Guessing Matt Puempel is too small for you? You know the kid that is already in our system, has very good goal scorer, can fight. The kid who has a full season in Bingo already.
Puempel is an interesting prospect with potential no question, although some question his skating, I don't I think he can get into the shooting lanes, snipers always fine ways. He could also be used as a trade asset, I don't really know what to think of him or what his future could be with the organization. I thought he would do better in Bingo & he does seem to be coming along nicely but I would certainly give him another yr. I think Schneider is ahead of him right now maybe because he is older but we'll see, being a first round pick does give him some value though.
I have no clue what I'm talking about ? And you do Most people don't question you but boy you get uptight when someone disagrees with you. Just my opinion I like skilled hockey players not skating pylons that are big. Where are Dizzy and Robinson in your lineups, two of your recent (large) favorites ?
People disagree with me all the time on here, like when I said Turris had first line potential last yr people said he would never be more than a 2nd line centre. Or when I said Ceci should be the 2nd pairing right shot defenceman instead of Corvo, most here said he should remain in Bingo for more seasoning. I'm constantly defending Greening, Smith, Wiercioch & Gryba. You are always on me about size, so what, I prefer a bigger, tougher team, I'm consistent that way
After playing some decent hockey for Ottawa Dizzy made a bad decision which IMO could have or seems to have cost him his NHL career, with Ottawa anyway, I think you know that. Too bad too, you hate to see a player go out like that. Robinson is in his first pro season, let's revisit this next yr, it ain't over for him just yet or have you already written him off. If fighting in the NHL continues to spiral downwards I could see at some future time where Neil is older & maybe not as needed & Robinson replaces Neil as a 3rd/4th line winger. It will be interesting to see if Neil gets another contract with Ottawa. Hard not to notice a big 6'5" player who can skate but he needs to put it all together & he has time in Bingo to improve.
