We all knew Grundy was special considering. Who's pick did we get him with? Was a he a result of what we got for Dion??
We got him with Washington's pick.
Winnick traded for Laich, Carrick and Gundstrom.
Mark it a win.
And playing Laich helped us TANK for Matthews.
Grundstrom is looking like a steal right now.
3 goals and 1 assist in 5 games for the Marlies so far in the playoffs.
It's safe to say he's already leap frogged all our forward prospects except for Kapenen.
Was at the game last night and out of all the players he was the only one that looked like an NHLer on that given night on the Marlies. Kapenen left much to be desired... Leipsic's speed was unreal but i think Grundstrom's game will translate very well to the NHL and soon.

out of all our NHL ready-ish wingers on the marlies, leipsic is at the bottom of the pile for me I think he is gone in the summer, likely in a package but could also be used as a 1 for 1 with a similar D prospect. Small scoring winger we have more than covered in the NHL and marlies and even further behind him in jnr (brooks & bracco)
Leipsic looks good and i hope he could be a solid NHLer but watching him i think he is one of those guys that can dominate the AHL and have trouble adjusting to the NHL. That being said if he or anyone is put with Matthews then i am sure they could be an NHl regular (see Hyman).
ha hyman and his 28 points is proof? (he is an nhler before others lose their ****).
Leipsic wouldn't be put with Matthews
LW is hymans spot,
Komarov has kadris LW
JVR bozaks and if JVR were moved Kapanen can play LW and should be in that spot, there really isn't a spot for him and RW is even more crowded.
Now Hyman is a natural RW that could be an option, there is also the obvious option of hyman moving into a role more applicable to his skill set 4th LW

I would be absolutely shocked if he made the Leafs next season. One thing our management has shown (especially with the limited amount of open spots available on our roster), they are willing to be patient. Once you're with the Leafs, you better be 100% ready to contribute
I see Grundstrom being treated the same way Kapanen was treated 2 years ago.
Let's see what Grundstrom can produce in a top 6 role with the Marlies next season. Following season, I could see him being the clear best player on the Marlies. If all goes well, by year 3, he'll be ready
Wonder if they send him back for another year in the SHL, Frolunda is a great place for young guys to develop. Then bring him and Korshkov over the following season
That would be a step back in his development. He's thriving in the ahl right now, which is a lot closer to NHL hockey then the shl. He belongs here.. and not just for our playoff run. His next stop after here will be NHL.

If that was the plan, they wouldn't have signed him to his ELC yet, and he probably wouldn't have come over for the Marlies run either.
No, I think he's here to stay for next season, and he probably has designs on a NHL roster spot, which, depending on what happens this summer between trades and his own training program, isn't really a long-shot to believe.

no, he is the type of player Babcock will fall head of heels in love with. Basically a more skilled hyman/komarov hybrid. Its not out of the realm of possibility he makes it out of camp this season forcing a trade or a unexpected player to be a healthy scratch, brown maybe for example
