I've liked the play of Mangiapane, Lemieux, and I've seen Harkins make a few good plays.

Mangiapane really interests me, he seems like a very smart hockey player.

Lemeiux has impressed me most of the game

De Leo, Olson, Harkins and Morrisey have had a few good moments


So far nothing to exciting from my perspective

Ehlers embellishes every time he's touched. Can't say I'm upset not having him in the system. Kid would have a rep with officials after one game in our sweater.

They've been pretty meh tbh, also I haven't seen Harkins since the 1st period, he made one good play then got nailed twice in a row.

Whalers has been terrible btw. Him and petan haven't done anything really, no chemistry between the two probably because their too similar of a player.

Ehlers wants to wind it up and go on his own too much.

Got nice and chippy between morrissey and Bennett a dew minutes back.

I only watched the last 5 minutes Was Petan getting pushed around all game or just the end?

Not impressed

Petan is jensen 2.0. I see zero / no chance he becomes a NHL regular. Skill alone won't get him there, extremely weak on the boards, no intensity, floating around.

Petan and Jensen aren't very good compsrables, Jensen is much bigger but a lot less skilled. But I agree with you about him having a tough time making the NHL. I really don't see it at this point.

Yeah Petan and Ehlers are going to get crushed if they actually played against a physical team.

Petan -- Yes, I totally agree with you. He reminds me a lot of Linden Vey.

Ehlers -- I don't think he'll have too much of a problem, but I also don't think he'll be the god that everyone labels him as. The guy is way too skilled to not have Top-6 duties in the NHL.

Everything I've seen of Ehlers- highlights, last yrs preseason, and this gm has allll consistently suggested he's Baertschi 2.0 with an extra gear to me.

I expect him to take a similar path to the league...

I still fear Ehlers will look even mode soft at the Nhl lvl, i agree i think he will land in the top six. Just feel if he doesnt land on the score board he doesnt bring anything else

Ehlers had the pick a lot but didn't look overly dominant to me.
As was said earlier seemed to embellish too often.

I'll be surprised if virtanen doesn't look better in this next game. (1 game sample size is enough right?!?!)

Wasn't impressed with too many of the prospects in the first games. Outside of a few bursts of speed even McDavid looks average.

Early days.
