Make that 2-8-10 in his last 8
Seems to be meshing well with Olofsson lately. Great to see.2-7-9 in his last 8. Seems he is starting to figure it out at the right time.

Edit: O’Regan has been the other member of the line. They have been great.

Looking good to make the team next year
SameAsplund I have a metric-ton of faith in. He just needs time.
I don't know whether to argue with you, or cry that a forward in this organization is "looking good to make the team next year" when he has 29 pts in 61 games. He does a bunch of things well, but he could definitely grow his game for another year in the A.
I've always seen some ROR-lite qualities to his game even in his jr days as far as play away from the puck, takeaway ability & IQ goes, not sure if the offense will near RORs. Also some Larry type grit to his game, always on his guys hip, being annoying with the ability to get under opponents skin.For people that have watched him play more, who is an NHL comparable for Asplund?
That's a glowing review, what is your opinion on his NHL ceiling?He's setting himself up really nicely to take over #1 center duties on Rochester. The one positive sign has the been the constant incremental improvement in his overall game. I was someone that thought he was our best player in training camp by far. But still wanted to see him sent down (just like Mittelstadt). I think he's going to be more special than anybody realizes right now.
That is intriguing. You guys have me excited for him!I've always seen some ROR-lite qualities to his game even in his jr days as far as play away from the puck, takeaway ability & IQ goes, not sure if the offense will near RORs.
