As for Rychel, it's about what we expected. He looked good which is a positive.
Jarmo said he is unwilling to risk the future for gains today. That means, even if Rychel is slightly better than other forwards, if they think he benefits most in the AHL then that's where he will be.
If Rychel stayed here the lines would have to look something like this for it to make sense:
Foligno-Joey-Hartnell
Rychel-Jenner-Skille
Calvert-Dubi-Cam
4th line from Gibbons,Tropp,Chaput,Cracknell
HCTR is liking Foligno at center, Joey with slugs and Jenner on the wing. Don't see how Rychel fits into that finely honed strategy. I suppose you could flip Jenner & Foligno but we don't know if that would work.
I like him in Springfield. His presence or absence mot likelyisn't going to make the difference in playoffs or none. Let him play a lot in Springfield and develop for the future.
He was miles better than Wennberg, he actually deserved to stay, unlike Wennberg, who played a whole quarter of the season.
Wennberg's extended stay had less to do with relative readiness and more to do with injuries.He was miles better than Wennberg, he actually deserved to stay, unlike Wennberg, who played a whole quarter of the season. I understand he needs more time to develop in the AHL, but really, Tropp, Cracknell or Rychel, who would you rather have in the lineup right now?
Only one thing is certain: Alexander Wennberg will be future Olympic gold medalist, Kerby Rychel won't be.
