Hope he gets some ice time. Koekkoek, Masin, and Taormina are holding down the left side in Syracuse and all three are playing really well. Maybe Taormina can switch to the right side as the big pilon Brodeur sucks bad or Groulx can play 11 - 7.
Masin, Koekkoek, Blujus, Thomas, Hajek is a real young and inexperienced 5 of 6 in the AHL.
There's a video in the link with Hajek and the Blades general manager talking about his signing.
Also mentioned is Hajek will be flying out today to join Syracuse.
How many games are left in the AHL season? Are we burning a year with that?
Nope, his ELC won't kick in yet. IIrc, players signed to ELCs who finish their CHL season can be reassigned to their NHL's team AHL affiliate by signing a PTO & players without an ELC can be reassigned by signing ATOs.
There's also 12 games left for the Crunch.
Goodbye Bolts! I am not a Bolts fan anymore. I made a poll for what team I should support. Once I decide, I will change my name and avatar.
That was a prank.
Are you serious?
100%, I don't take to kindly to pranks or jokes. I'm here for serious discussions not to mess with people.

All right then.
Back on topic, I think Hajek has 2D upside, is that accurate? I've been known to overrate prospects though. (Not just Bolts ones)
That was a prank.

I'm stoked. This kid is good. Very good hands, and shutdown D ability.
We're happy to have you here Dominic.
He is like a better, more mobile version of Radko. Can't wait to see this kid.
I think his offensive upside is higher than Radko's.
