Prospect Info: Eric Cornel (2014, 44th) – '18-19: Rochester #20 (AHL)

[Husko]

Anyone have an actual report on him? As a fairly one dimensional scorer I expect a slow transition to the pro game. But I believe, as I have for awhile, that he has a good chance at getting to the NHL and being a frustrating one dimensional scorer there. We'll see.

So 1-6-7 in his last 7. Is this simply a case of the available ice time with all the recalls or is he actually starting to produce? Has there been progress?

He is a stud, just needs ice.

He is a stud, just needs ice.

Like a 2x4? 18" on center?

I have never seen stud, but I'm willing to be won over if this is actual progress.

 

[Husko]

Perhaps my long standing prediction of him becoming an NHLer I hate will still yet come true.

It seems like he is a slow starter and then when he gets ice time he can create. Hopefully he keeps trending up.

Duffer heaping praises on Cornel this morning. Taylor too.

It seems hard for guys like Malone and Cornell to transition to the NHL. There's just so many spots on an NHL roster and you don't want them all taken by the young guys/GMs won't have that.
I think the 93/94 Sabres are a good comparison to next years team in terms of bringing up young guys.

The gist was that Cornel has played every game and does something positive every game. Duff also said it may not be an NHL level thing, but that Cornel has grown into a pro.

Like I said, I don't see a stud, but I'm willing to be persuaded by his play.

You can say it, it's okay. I already know.

Sidebar, but I could listen to Duffer talk hockey all day and be perfectly content.

 

[sjci]

I have long gone on record saying how I think he sucks. Waste of a draft pick. Hopefully he can be packaged in a trade before people realize how terrible he is.

What a waste on a 2nd round this year turned out to be.

Botts f***ed up

16'' on center

I hope they intend to sign him to an AHL deal...

Hypocrite

TM said after the draft he took chances on boom/bust players... you say he did a shit draft

Yet last week you said the reverse on bits taking a safer pick.

Who are you directing this at?

Sir, this is an Arby's.

If they were, I think they may have done so by now. I'm glad he turned into an AHL glue guy this year. It's certainly more than I ever saw when he was in the OHL.

Sir, this is an Arby's.

 

[Tsyolin]

Cornel was solid on the Amerks, I'd love to see him sign an AHL deal with them. I don't think he has a future in the NHL, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him investigate a better opportunity.

Don't feel bad, the whole 2nd round that draft was terrible across the board. The only really good player from it is on our roster now. Brandon Montour.

 

[Husko]

Would a QO have been one or two way?

It’s kind of odd the number of 2nd-3rd rounders that passes through the org from that draft
