What AHL players are NHL calibre?

[The Nuge]

Is Mark Fayne NHL caliber?

Depends on the team. He could probably be in the top 6 dmen of a team like Colorado or Toronto, but for the most part, he's probably on the bubble. He could be a 7th dman for quite a few teams

Any players who are down in the AHL due to their team having too much depth but who could be servicable in another NHL team?

Berra and Kapanen come to mind.

The same Kapanen who has 1 point in 18 games? I'm not sure I'd call him NHL calibre with stats like that

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Paul LaDue, Kevin Gravel.

Jonny Brodzinski possibly, though he's still working on an identity, and Michael Mersch feels like he's been on our roster bubble forever but just hasn't been able to break through yet.

 

[Nickel eye Heel hers]

Roslovic playing for the Moose is probably damn close to NHL ready.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Adam Erne and Alex Volkov. Possibly Cory Conacher, Matthew Peca, Michael Bournival or Erik Condra.

 

[LeafFever]

Kapanen should be in the NHL.

 

[Martinez]

Lil joe hicketts. (I hope)

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Andrew Mangiapane, Garnet Hathaway, and Oliver Kylington

 

[thedustman]

Barbashev blais walman

 

[Knies iT]

Kapanen, Dermott, Soshnikov and Rosen have all been NHL ready for some time now.

 

[GodEmperor]

Leivo, guy could easily put up 20 goals, but we have generational grinding/agitation in Komarov and generational hitting/looking like Brad Pitt in Martin so there's no need to actually "score goals" or whatever the hell you kids are into these days.

 

[Mobiandi]

Andrew Mangiapane, Garnet Hathaway, and Oliver Kylington

I'd say Rittich too

 

[dmj616]

Jordan Schmaltz

 

[BleedBlue14]

For the Blues Schmaltz is extremely capable just blocked, Barbashev hasn't looked great this year with the big club but is fully capable.

On another note Agostino for the Bruins should be in the NHL in my opinion I'm kind of upset we let him walk.

 

[MaxDummy]

Is Ho-Sang in the AHL now?

 

[Lays]

A lot for the Rangers
Chytil
Pionk
Graves
Deangelo (pls call him up)

 

[PWiz30]

Shipachyov

 

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

Shea Theodore. I can't believe he's in the AHL, he's too good for it. He should be in the NHL.

Last year's playoffs 14GP, 8 points as a defenseman for Anaheim Ducks.


AHL this season: 8GP, 5+6, 11 points...

 

[izzy]

wade megan for sure should be in the nhl

 

[FinnishCoyote]

Dylan Strome has been very, very good in AHL. I think he is finally ready to play in NHL.

 

[1specter]

Depends on the team. He could probably be in the top 6 dmen of a team like Colorado or Toronto, but for the most part, he's probably on the bubble. He could be a 7th dman for quite a few teams



The same Kapanen who has 1 point in 18 games? I'm not sure I'd call him NHL calibre with stats like that

If you're just gonna look at box score stats don't bother. 9 of those games were in 2015/2016 when he clearly wasn't ready, but he was definitely NHL calibre last year and this year too. He's been given purely 4th line minutes and still looked quite good. There's nothing left for Kapanen to prove in the AHL.

 

[Beautvillier]

Is Ho-Sang in the AHL now?

yeah. not enough roster space with quine back on a condition stint. i'd assume after that he gets waived and ho-sang comes back up.

 

[Maukkis]

From the Jets, Roslovic and Hutchinson seem to fit the bill.

 

[Beville]

Ship

For the Sens it's White and Chabot... We're not panicking enough just yet to bring them in.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

yeah. not enough roster space with quine back on a condition stint. i'd assume after that he gets waived and ho-sang comes back up.

Tbh could see Tampa claiming Quine if Paquette isn't back by then.

 

[Beautvillier]

Tbh could see Tampa claiming Quine if Paquette isn't back by then.

please take him
