Farrell’s First
Sean Farrell’s first NHL game was quiet, though it did involve a few nice passes and smart defensive positioning. He drove to the net, showing off his offensive instincts, and was not caught out of position, providing evidence of his NHL readiness.

If there’s one thing that’s clear, it’s that Farrell thinks the game at an NHL level, which means he should quickly acclimatize to the league despite his lack of professional experience.

It was the opposite of a baptism by fire. If anything, it gave Farrell an opportunity to experience professional hockey without having to stress too much about making his NHL debut, an ideal situation for a young player that has already played a significant amount of hockey in the NCAA this season.

His line, which featured Jonathan Drouin at centre and Denis Gurianov on the wing, was anything but excellent. They struggled to form chemistry, which is to be expected with a brand-new line, but you’d be hard-pressed to argue Farrell was the cause of the lack of cohesion.

well to establish all of this about a player, you've probably watched a few games, no?

I feel like you should give Farrell more time before calling him a guy that won't find his place in the NHL.

I mean... one game... without even getting one practice with the team.... playing with 2 castaways.... He's only 21.....

Mayyyyybe give him a full training camp first?

sure, but practicing with the team won't make him a faster skater or a better shooter.
like I said, what does he bring exactly? will that be good enough to make the top6 on a winning team?
I have my doubts, and hope he proves me wrong.

see, I prefer Ylonen. he's a fast skater, has a great shot.... he has distinctive qualities.
same thing with RHP, he brings something.
Farrell... I'm not sure.

i like that you can just admit that you're a chicken and don't have to pretend to be anything else.

Guys like Farrell might need a bit of time to perfect their game. He did fairly well at the Olympics and World Championship but it was not NHL level but he showed he can adapt to a higher level. Wouldn't be surprised he goes to Laval next fall to work on a few things.
