Something to salvage out of that 2014 draft other than Reinhart.All eyes are on this kid right now and I love it. He came out of nowhere.

No way I put him with Eichel. I keep Olofsson, Nylander and Asplund together. That Swedish line has serious chemistry, keep them in the AHL building on that, bring all 3 up together next season, or, if moves can be made and they are fully ready, mid-season.Eichel should be able to get Olofsson the 1/4 second he needs to get the shot off at ES

He has one goal on the PP...
His release is in the top 5% of NHL players.
The way he's tooling AHL goaltenders is incredible. You can almost see it in their reactions that they're saying to themselves "WTF just happened?"
When he comes up, he needs to be on the RW half-wall, opposite Jack. That shot is too much of a weapon to put anywhere else. And once other NHL teams realize that, it'll also open up space for Eichel.

I’m pretty sure @Zip15 is referring to PP usage with him on the RW half wall opposite Jack. Not the 5v5 line he should be on.I know that, you know that, we all know that, but does Phil know that? likely not. I'd put money down on him playing the likes of Pominville/Okposo/Berglund/Sobodka and not producing before getting the slightest look along side Eichel.
Olofsson - Eichel - Reinhart should be a no brainer...
Not even close. The guy is much better shooter and there is no comparison.Reminds me of a faster Pominville.
I fear he will come up play 8 minutes a game on Sobotka's wing.The way he's tooling AHL goaltenders is incredible. You can almost see it in their reactions that they're saying to themselves "WTF just happened?"

If you can shoot like that on the pp, the rest can get worked or buried in the bottom 6, and then come onto the ice for pps like Rick Vaughn, “wild thing” blasting in the background with pyrotechnics!
Pominville is an odd comparison. Pominville is infamous for shooting directly into the Goalie's chest.Not even close. The guy is much better shooter and there is no comparison.
