I agree. Give him 9 gave stint over the first two months of the season, throw in an AHL conditioning stint (which I think is allowed), have him play in World Juniors in 2nd half of December, then back to OHL for the rest of the season. (Basically what Shane Wright did).
And the best part is we're going to be adding FOUR more first round picks to the system over the next 15 months, two of which will almost certainly be top five picks.
Yep potentially 3 lotto picks, plus whatever VGKs becomes, and then 3 high 2nds as well. (So far)
Has Grier ever not said anything bluntly? I'm pretty sure he's been transparent from the first day he got hired.
It's what i like about ex players getting these high management jobs, the majority of them do not hold back there words if they aren't happy with something.
Yea I haven't been particularly impressed by his play but the narrative kinda took over for him. He does rack up the points though.
Guy is big and has a heavy shot. He pumps enough of them to the net that a lot go in. He's definitely a player but I wouldn't want him in our prospect pool as a first liner. I think he plays pretty stupid hockey.
He’s big, he’s strong, he’s an above average skater for his size, he’s solid defensively and plays PK, and he’s got a helluva shot. Add in that he’s not a freshman and that combines to create the ultimate Hockey Man.
There is enough smoke that Seravalli is close with Labanc's agent and Gregor's uncle that those are the sources for all the dumb noise from him. Seems more straightforward. This guy must have been doing extremely badly though to burn the bridge so publicly. I'm here for it, it's just surprising in a small community.
