IDK. Forward development tends to differ from winger, so that might not be it. However, GMBOT was part of the group that developed Rust and Sherry. Maybe.
Leave Smith right where he is. Let them win down there. Send Griffith down though.One of very few bright spots right now - point per game in his rookie AHL season.
He also looked quite good at camp.
Send Griffith down and bring this kid up.
I’m an advocate for keeping all talent possible on Rochester. Let Nylander and Smith stay there next year as well but with some call ups. Add Mittelstadt, Olofsson, Asplund, Pu and Davidsson to the team as well as some good AHL veterans. Rochester is our opportunity to teach young players about winning. Playoff experience etc.One of very few bright spots right now - point per game in his rookie AHL season.

It is exactly what you should do when the big club is terrible.You can’t do that if the big club is terrible.
I was just about to post the same thing. Glad I checked I few posts back in this thread.I've been wondering why he hasn't been called up yet with his production so far. Could he be viewed in a better light than Bailey or Baptiste and is getting the Guhle treatment? As in they are working on his game and letting it blossom in the minors, so when he finally gets called up he stays up. (Taylor's comments on Guhle's development and what I'm calling the Guhle treatment). Or am I reading too much into this?
EDIT: Watch he gets called up for Saturday's game after his huge game Friday.
For all the trouble Murray went to to find Eichel's winger (Nylander, Vesey), I think Smith, Olofsson, or Asplund ends up producing with him.
I don't think there was all that much more effort put into finding Eichel wingers than any other roster location.
Sure, but more likely he is a career top scoring AHLer.I’m yet to see much of him but his numbers are fantastic. For any Rochester viewers, does he have top 6 NHL potential?

Really? I always felt like that was the deciding factor between Nylander and D in the draft.
I'm recalling that quote right around draft time, paraphrashing, "I'm not sure Eichel's wingers are on the roster right now"
