Speers looked solid 2 years ago, but had one assist.Prospects go off in pre-season all the time. Speers did it two years ago, Lappin went off three years ago. Bratt and Hischier last year.
There was an open spot for anyone that was able to step up going against a mix of other prospects, career AHLers and NHLers just going through the motions. What does it say about the players' effort and determination if they look outmatched against that?
Bratt's play last year was a different beast, he had 2g's 2 a's and I'd say his play was far better then his #'s.
Year prior Lappin had 2g's and and assist, but his play wasn't anywhere near the level of Bratt's last year.
