Not sure if I'd put both snipers on Barzal's wing. Rather put someone similar to Beauvillier who can retrieve the puck to find Barzal to find his wingers.

Then you can also put one winger with whoever ends up our 2C (Jack Hughes, maybe )

I did it just for pure optics!

Elite playmaker, with potentially two elite snipers...yikes the Isles might score more goals without JT lol!!

Wahlstrom off to a good start to his NCAA career. Freshman and he’s the top line winger.

LOL they drafted him with Calgary's pick.

That game was vs the University of New Brunswick. Surprised he got a Hockey-East freshman of the week for an exhibition game. I mean, BC treated it as an exhibition with them using a different goalie each period.

He should still light up the NCAA and Hockey-East with that shot if his teammates find him.

LOL they drafted him with Calgary's pick.

Technically it was Dobson we drafted with Calgary's pick. Personally between the choice of both I would take Dobson. I am always curious if the Islanders only had 1 pick which one they would have taken(I have a theory that they went with Wahlstrom first since he is more marketable and to see if they can drive up the price for the 12th pick)

He should still light up the NCAA and Hockey-East with that shot if his teammates find him.

The only problem with that shot is that is Barzal's sweet spot on the PP, and Pulock's sweet spot as well. Going to be crowded if all 3 are on the ice together. lol

Considering none of them are net-front guys, it'd be impossible to put all 3 on their strong side on PP1. There's only 2 RHS spots.

No they didn't.

How do you get a rookie of the week award before the season starts?

 

[Kcb12345]

Still so disappointed that he didn't fall to the Stars. So close ugh he was a top 5 guy for me in the draft

 

[SI90]

How do you get a rookie of the week award before the season starts?

Exhibition games. Plus, he’s just that good

are you questioning Wall-E and this prestigious award????

Appears to be struggling out of the gate. Just 1 goal and point in his first 5 games.

The team as a whole is off to a bad start. Hopefully Wahlstrom can start lighting the lamp.

He will have to make some adjustments in the way he plays and competes

Slightly worrisome, I hope he gets it as a message to compete a bit harder, but I can't see his shot not translating to the NHL level.

to be fair, BC as a whole has been a mess. So its not just him. But i am feeling better and better at picking Kravtsov over Wahlstrom. I think Wahlstroms gonna be a valuable player, but a guy who will have to play with a dynamic center/ line mates. He's the type of guy who can play with and use his shot effectively when he has someone that can utilize his strengths.

people need to look around college hockey right now, scoring is down, and the top kids ALL are either not getting the minutes or their teams are struggling overall..even Quinn Hughes hasn't been producing like expected...thins typically open up more second half as teams start playing their freshmen more...
