Definitely seems a little behind on the play, but I was chalking that up to trying to think more before reacting, since the club wants him to play a certain way. His straight line speed isn't really bad, it just seems to take him a while to get into his top gear.
I'd agree with that. Maybe it's too much thinking. Seems like he might be "fast" enough, but quickness feels like an issue. First few steps look slow.
I'm sure he'll be fine but I really hope they don't regret throwing these kids in too early. Moreover, I hope they don't regret choosing to give these kids (college kids namely) more ice than others, like Cehlarik for example. Would Cehlarik or somebody else have benefit more from the obvious benefit of the doubt that's been given to a guy like Donato, or Heinen or Bjork?
I honestly have no idea nor am I criticizing...just wondering. A few of these kids just don't look ready.
