Prospect Info: Isles Prospect Talk 2019-20 | Part I

[The Real JT]

I think Bellows and Holmstrom have the same ceiling really. Different players, but the same ceiling as far as offensive impact is concerned. To me, one is your typical finesse type player and the other is a power forward and we all know powerforwards take longer to develop..i would not count Bellows out. He's still better than MDC was at the same time and look where he is! Our top 6! Also, this is only Bellow's second year in the AHL. He had 19 points last year...so I think he will break out this year and we may see him in an Isles uniform next year as a call up

Never a good sign when you're being compared to MDC.

Anyone know what’s going on with Soderstrom?

Anyone know what’s going on with Soderstrom?

He's first time dressed as a backup today in Bridgeport at currently running game vs Providence Bruins...

From Pronmon’a prospect notes:

15. Cole Coskey (RW, New York Islanders) is a very smart player and has some pro attributes. I don’t know if he’s quick enough for the NHL, but if he has a big year, which he should as an overage player in the OHL, he could work his way into a pro contract with the Islanders.

I wouldn't exactly call that a ringing endorsement.

it’s as much as you could hope for with an OA draft pick.

Linus Soderstrom assigned to Railers, sure to get into some games. He backed up Coreau on Tuesday vs Providence.

 

[DarkHorse2]

I feel like signing Coreau was just a bad move, even if I understand it as insurance against Soderstrom's health. I'd rather release him at this point.

I hope that Soderstrom and Skarek push him out of the picture soon and take over the reins in Bridgeport by end of the season together.

 

[steveat]

He's pretty bad. The softies he let in are inexcusable.

A neat piece of article on Simon Holmstrom:

A neat piece of article on Simon Holmstrom:

So glad Holmstrom is here this season. I know some others on this board disagreed with me on wanting him here but I still believe this is the best thing for his development. Glad to see he is no stranger to hard work.

 

[MJF]

On Sunday I’m going to the Ottawa 67s-Sarnia Sting game. Is there anyone I should keep an eye out for on either team?

You really need to get out more and see some live hockey.

For the upcoming draft Jacob Perrault is an 02 14pt in ten games RW for Sarnia.
Belanger is a LD an O2, Tolnai has plenty of upside just has to get going another 02 C for Ottawa.

[Bronson]

Nice to see Pivonka finally getting some points.

 

[doublechili]

Nice to see Pivonka finally getting some points.

That kinda jumped out at me too. With his size, grit, etc., if he can produce some offense we might just have a nice player.

 

[seafoam]

Are we sure we want Holmstrom around this mess?

Thompson gonna do what he does best and ruin another prospect

 

[leeroggy]

Thompson gonna do what he does best and ruin another prospect

Which is one reason I roll my eyes when some posters here keep calling for our young players to 'over-ripen' in the AHL, as if our track record at that for our forwards makes it a given . . .

 

[Frankie41987]

Lou purged the coaching staff a year ago and Thompson stayed so clearly he has some sort of faith in him. Don’t you guys trust Lou?
