What is the status of Michael Kesselring?

Is he going to stick with the big club?

The invincible man didn’t make it. I didn’t think he would. Still an excellent player and will have a long NHL career, but I think it was the right move.

He’s been relatively invincible the games I’ve watched. I won’t count the rookie game, he should have had those points, or more.

Great prospect, but hasn’t done anything to cement himself as a sure in, that’s my opinion though and that usually doesn’t mean much haha
I kind of think he will be sent down . I think you add Kerfoot to Cooley’s line ( or Cooley and Bugstad swap) in any case I think if Guenther gets replaced on his line they won’t move him to the 4th line. You put him in the first line line in Tucson and bring him up later in the year if he excels

I do think they may try him for a few games but if he starts becoming healthy scratches they send him down .

I hope he turns on the jets for games that matter and we see a different player

I also think he is not being utilized on the PP correctly for his skill set I think he should be more on the half wall where he usually scores

But what do I know ? Lol

I guess I could have scrolled Down and noticed he was already sent down would haves saved me typing all of that on my phone lol

Surprised Carcone made it over Guenther. Expected both to start in Tucson.

Good on Carcone though!
He is one a 1 way etc

Guenther is talented, but I would've sent him to Tucson too. He needs big minutes in the AHL, not the NHL. He also needs at least 10 lbs of muscle. He's simply just not ready.
He was last year.. I agree with what you said though. He didn't look like the same player that he was last year. Lost confidence, better competition and he is in Tucson. Not a bad thing.

Soderstrom didn’t make it. Kinda tossing the towel on him. He’s just so unimpressive in every way. He’s not a great skater, he’s small and can’t hit, he gets knocked off the puck so easily and isn’t great positionally, and he can’t score. He just doesn’t really do anything.

We had him as the 3rd best player. Never forget

Little disappointing for sure, but he had his chance. Let's see how the season progresses. I would think he might get a call up sometime this year.

Not WE, Chayka, the smartest man in the room did.

If the Defender isn't tall, he had better have electric offense or supreme passing skills ala Adam Fox. If not, no reason to draft in the first round.

Many such cases. (some worked out, IE Keller, some not so much clearly lol)

Hayton has turned it around, but even when he minimally showed he showed a lot more than Soderstrom. Still some hope perhaps but not a lot.

I get missing. It’s the trading up with extra draft capital and then being smug about it to the media.
