Kloke said he heard from a few people that Abruzzeze might look to turn pro in 2021. It depends on how the 20/21 season goes.I read the article, it was amazing actually. I don't love many or get excited by most but that one was great. Abruzzese sounds like a player man.
Liljegren is one of the best defencemen in the AHL. This only proves that.

Jake Bean is actually a year older than Liljegren, and Liljegren had similar ES production. Bean was just better on the PP.
Bean still had the upperhand in ES.... 0.457 PPG vs. .0425 for Liljegren.
Bean is a fine prospect, more in the tradition of offensive defenseman. I think Liljegren is going to prove to be a two way guy, and in time, a fine defensive player, capable of time on the PK. He will put up ok points, but I don't think that's going to be his game. That Liljegren will be a good two way D, and is still putting up decent offensive numbers is the bonus to me.
He racked up a lot of secondary assists in that though. Liljegren was actually a little bit better when it came to primary points at ES, and remember that Bean was used as their primary offensive guy most of the year. Sandin was given more of the offensive opportunities/top PP minutes for the Marlies.
I see him being a top 4 two way defenceman who can play both special teams. Keefe said the same thing before the stoppage.I appreciate that. I'm just saying, that I think Liljegren is going to have a much more rounded game, be a good defensive guy, and that this offense, whatever it translates to in the NHL will be a bonus. If he actually ends up being as good as a Bean/Sandin offensively, and he continues to show growth in his defensive game, he could be top pairing... He still makes mistakes, but if he cleans that up, his positioning, and poise in the back end, results in a very high ceiling.

Coskey sounds so familiar. Did we have him at dev. camp one year?The Islanders just signed Felix Bibeau, Cole Coskey, and Blade Jenkins to ELC's, so there are another three worse prospects than Stotts who just received ELC's.
Not saying other team's choices should impact the Leafs, but when multiple teams are signing inferior prospects to ELC's, that should say something about the quality of the prospect. However there are rumours they may extend the prospect signing deadline from June 1st to a later date.

Heard it might be extended to July 1stRiley Stotts' rights expire tomorrow at 5.
Haven't heard the slightest thing about the direction they are learning here.
I hope he is retained, but I'm surprised it's going down to the wire.
