One of the youngest players in that draft iirc

point a game as a 20yo in the AHL is decent

I'm hoping he works out for us but not holding my breath.

Gardiner has been a threat at 5 on 5...

PM me which ones.

The only thing disappointing about Kappinen so far is that he didn't make the jump with the rest of the youths. He is still a solid prospect with expectations of an NHL career. However, he better make the jump next year...

Soshnikov has some gritty traits, but at 23 years old, he needs to produce a lot more than 6/6/12 in 60 games if he plans on sticking in the NHL. At this point I would say he is closer to moving down to a career in the AHL than he is to moving up to a top 9 forward position on the leafs.

You guys see the clinic Raanta put on last night? Either Vegas or some team that gets him from Vegas is going to get a real solid #1 goalie.

He'll still only be 21 if he doesn't.

hasnt been given any real point producing ice time IMO

I'd hope they'd try him in Hymans spot before demoting

Vasilevsky.
- AdamFrench

He looked great too.

PM me which ones.

I will in a bit / gotta cuddle and watch some tv with Jr

He'll still only be 21 if he doesn't.
- mykokes

he seems to have some project-able numbers at a young age.

i kinda expect he gets his chance in the nhl next year if he has a good camp.

NHL drafting is hard

Kapanen hasn't made the jump because he's had a rough go with injuries this season. No need to be disappointed yet.

Pastrnak 25th
- RickJames77

is that the guy who got owned by Eric Karlsson back checking?

I dont get why he would have to.

I think he does, but if they want to keep him down longer thats fine

I also wonder if the Leafs' brass decided that they simply couldn't have more rookies in the lineup this year.

This is the most likely scenario, but damn the rookies have been outplaying the vets by a wide margin.

- senstroll

yeah, same guy that's outscoring Nylander in less games played

Also he blocked a slap shot right before that to create his breakaway so you know, that'll slow you down

- bryant

is it that wide? i mean, jvr and bozak are doing what they typically do offensively.

kadri is having a career year.

Pastrnak 25th
- RickJames77

The Elitserien had a strong group.

Nylander, Pastrnak, Fiala, Kempe and Vrana.

Gardiner with all 3
