He's 17. He has the tools but it'll come down to development. Same with most kids.

Ryan Strome is comparable player. He's 21 and really good but it takes time. Draft him, park him in jr. for at least one more year …ahl for another year ….the give him a sniff when he's ready.

He wouldn't be able to play in AHL after another year of OHL... Have to be 20. So he'd probably make the team in 2016

Not sure why people get so excited for these ncaa free agent signings. Sure, it costs the team nothing but money, but how many have actually amounted to diddly squat in the last 10 years? The biggest one I can think of is bozak, and now fans want his head served in a silver platter. This kid will be flipping burgers in 2 years just like all the other ones.

Yup

its the same thing with Nylander. I dont want him here next year. and people here will female dog and moan that he isnt in the NHL... but they obviously don't understand.

- Lee Denault


Agreed. Another yr in the Ahl. Bring him up when he's dominating down there and physically ready.

In his defense the Leafs would have been the top if the CAD was on par with the USD.

You mock the leafs fans loyalty by saying thats exactly why they dont deserve a cup.

Yeah it's brutal. He may be ready to jump right to the nhl though. He just needs to bulk up a bit, the skill and smarts is there. His skating could improve also

Just because you've bought poop on a stick for 50 years and I held out for a steak doesn't mean you deserve steak, it means you really really like poop on a stick.

No. It doesn't and id assume many disagree with that stance.

Holding out for a steak? Youve never bought a single maple leaf piece of merchandise?

And even if you haven't which i highly doubt. You start buying once they won the cup?

That's what you call bandwagon.
