Prospect Info: Marlies and Prospects Discussion - 2018/19 Edition IV

Not sure what to make of this but Hendricks retweeted this tweet. Mat Robson is an undrafted goaltender from Toronto playing for the Minnesota Gophers and looking at his stats... he looks pretty damn good. Potentially a free agent signing in the near future?

Both Bobylev and Dzierkals were drafted as CHL prospects and the Leafs let Bobylevs rights expire, Dzierkals was signed to an AHL deal, but the Leafs never resigned him.

Rasanen had another year of CHL junior eligiblity, but he chose to return to the KHL. Because of this, the Leafs retain his rights until he returns to North America (ECHL, AHL, NHL); when he returns I believe they will continue to hold his rights for 7 more seasons, regardless if he returns back to the KHL in that time frame.

The Leafs still own Bobylev'S rights indefinitely.

He was at Leafs prospect camp two years ago.

He played minor hockey (Marlies) with McDavid, Ho-Sang, Sam Bennett, etc.

Reilly-Zaitsev is a disaster. Even Babs couldn’t stomach it. Accordingly he gave Gardner the burden, I suppose because Gardiner even made Phaneuf tradeable

Grundstrom had a good game, that doesn't change the fact he's had a disappointing season so far. Right now I have Rosen and Moore as future NHLers with Liljegren and Bracco as strong possibilities for next year

er....a 25gl/60pt pace is not dissappointing for a 20/21yr old gritty 2-way winger.

 

[SprDaVE]

Liljegren not playing today. Looks like his return will have to wait until next game, which is NEXT Saturday.

Amazing, I love having to give my credit card info and then having to cancel before the subscription service starts charging me. I love junk email even more

It doesn't have that. It's legit.

They'll probably send you emails or something, but I just did it because there was nothing about payment.

 

[GoldenGOOSE]

Grundstrom disappointing? Lol. That guy will definitely make the NHL. The AHL is tough, its a good, good league. Leafs have figured out totally how to use the AHL to their advantage.

Liljegren not playing today. Looks like his return will have to wait until next game, which is NEXT Saturday.

Good to know they are making sure the ankle is stable and stronger before sending him back in.

There is a back-to-back for the Marlies next weekend with a real quick turnover time (Saturday 6pm start, followed by a 1pm start on Sunday). Even if Liljegren is cleared tomorrow and looking in great shape, it would be irresponsible for him to play both games.

Hopefully Liljegren gets one of those two games next week, and he takes off from there.

Definitely. His numbers are terrific for a 21 year old rookie in the AHL. My only concern with Grundstrom is his inconsistent effort and snarl. He has the ability to play with an edge, but he doesn't always, and there have been extended stretches where he looks disinterested.

Has the potential to be a Babcock favourite, but he will need to bring it every night rather than every other.

I said disappointing season, when have I ever said Grundstrom was a dud? I stand by what I said, I've been disappointed with Grundstrom this year and he isn't NHL ready from what I've seen this year

He’s fantastic. I watch a ton of gophers games every season, and he’s one of their top guys. Would be worth trying to sign eventually

Dzierkals was drafted out of Europe then went to the Q the year after, what is the story on his rights?

Good to hear. Makes me wonder if Henny knows something there.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I really hope Trevor Moore gets a spot on the Leafs by the playoffs. he's so good

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Watched like half of that game, and the Marlies looked really bad. Rosen - LoVerde pairing got exposed quite a bit, and the offence didn't generate anything. Moore looked pretty good.

 

[stickty111]

Stotts with 2 goals today. It was his 4th 2 goal game this season.

 

[Pyromaniac]

SDA 0+1 in 7-2 loss

Stotts with 2 goals in 7-3 loss, unfortunately they came at the expense of Scott, who got the win and made 21 saves. Edit: Already covered above

The team was playing fine until Carcone took that stupid penalty for whatever reason and the Marlies gave up 2 PP goals before it expired. You probably watched the second half when they were totally dejected, but the first half they were easily the better team (even despite the scoring difference). LoVerde was a bit shaky at times, but Rosen looked like an NHL defenseman as he usually does.

 

[Bigmarycombo]

Didn’t we sign Tom stestito to a PTO

What’s the story behind that. Is he practicing with the marlies
Is he going to get in a game

Worth a flyer. Will the Leafs also be signing Woll in the offseason? Not sure how well the Kaskisuo experiment has gone in the AHL, so maybe it's time to turn it over to a new group.

I think the Leafs can sign Woll soon as his NCAA season is over, and Scott should be also playing in the AHL next season too.

What were you expecting for him to not be disappointing? On pace for over 20 goals and 60 points and just turned 21. First season in NA. Plays gritty.

I'm an armchair GM/Scout (I do enjoy watching the Marlies), and you can throw his goals/assists at me all day but by my eye test he has not been impressive (other than his great shot). He doesn't drive plays, doesn't forecheck well (even tho he is a power forward), and just generally isn't involved in the play.

Yes I get he is young and he still has time to develop but that doesn't change the fact I've not been impressed by Grundstrom this year. There is still a ton of hockey left and there is always next year to make a better impression
