Prospect Info: Emil Heineman

[EveryDay]

Heineman should have been sent down, he needs to work on his offensive game, there's no need to rush him.

Can we send Gallagher as well to work on his offensive game?

Any news on his injury?

He had a collision with a referee yesterday in game… You can’t make that up, such a Habs thing

Heineman plays a very aggressive style. He keeps his eyes on the puck carrier and goes a hundred miles an hour on him. I wouldn't be surprised at all if injuries are a serious problem for him in his career. He may have to tone down the way he plays.

Remember when 3 weeks ago people were like ''if this team is healthy we could be competitive!''

We are always ready to get hurt again.

Reinbacher knee injury is deemed not serious.

But.. the Dach stuff looks ominous.

Sadge

That was a freak thing with Heineman. Damn I hope he is ok

 

[Fatbiggie]

Remember when people tried the argument that Slaf should have played in Laval or Europe because the injury risk in Montreal was uniquely high?

Good times.

If we are at the point where we have to take "being cursed" as a development consideration, then I don't know. Lol.

Maybe the entire organization should just fold because of the fear of injuries.

Heineman has played a handful of games, I am wondering what folks think of his game so far? I know it's early, just curious. Does he show NHL potential?

Big, fast , great shot, yes hes an NHL player. He could easily replace Armia in the lineup. Bottom 6 player

That's my thinking as well. His biggest challenge has been his ability to stay healthy. He has a great shot and he is very strong on his skates

 

[badfish]

I was expecting more to be honest. My recollection (eye test) in the pre-season was he had more of a physical presence and shot more. In regular season I am not seeing that in the games yet. I checked his game log for regular season - no shots on net yet, and ~1 hit a game.

Good news is it's still early. Another positive sign - his ice time has increased every game. It will be interesting to see how he looks at game 10, 20, etc. in the NHL.

 

[Andy]

He;s been really good retrieving pucks and maintaining a cycle. He's a puck hound.

Not impressed…another Ylonen. Looks good skating around in circles, but doesn’t really do anything - neither attack the puck & drive the net

Ylonen has at least found a niche purpose in shootouts

 

[yianik]

We need to remember that rookies mantra is " do no harm". Unless you are an elite talent and the team has given you the green light, a prospect has to really put positional play as his priority, and doing things like playing physical can put you out of position. So it's all good.

Struble (a non elite talent) obviously missed that memo

His positional play is mostly excellent so this is a weird retort.

As for Heinemen, it feels like I can see him thinking sometimes if that makes sense? He looks like he’s ready to explode sometimes and looks passive other times. Happy to let him acclimate as he has some tools and features missing from the forward group.

While you may ultimately be right in your assessment I think we need a larger sample size.

One thing is for sure Heineman and Ylonen make Monahan move his feet.

There is something to what you said with Monahan getting 4 of the 19 shots on goal last night, he was more effective than any other forward.
