Prospect Info: [2024 - 21st] Michael Hage, Chicago Steel (USHL), Committed to U of Michigan

Agreed. I think the plan with Hage will be similar to that of Caufield and Hutson - - two years in NCAA, and then sign an ELC once that 2nd season is completed, if he's ready to move up. Remember, Hage missed some development time in the past year due to injury and his father passing. Rushing him to the NHL would be a mistake.

Agreed. Plus Hage has a lean frame. He may need to fill out, and time to do so.

I have no idea who people are talking about in this thread anymore.

People respond to posts with "he", and then respond to those posts with "he", and then respond to those posts with "he", and the it's no longer obvious who people are talking about.

I had to back a bit. The player being crapped on is Joshua Roy.

I think one person was talking about Hage with a "he" in the middle of all that at some point and people responded to it with "he" but meaning Roy. It's all very confusing.

Happens in a lot of threads, lots of tangents and it seems clear who you’re talking about when you post.

Hage is having a really good start.

Roy will be fine, and better with better players around him. The groupthink dumping on guys is one of the irritants on this board.

Kid looks really good. The goal was extremely nice but it's the passes that are really impressing me.

Awesome vision. Looks like Nick out there.

Mesar is a small soft winger who is invisible most of the game. Even if Hage had 0 point but played like he has during the first 2 games he would still look more promising. You know actual skill matter more than point total in lower league. Like being 6"1, good shot, good vision and have you seen his zone entry? Mesar never looked that promising. Also scoring in the Ncaa is harder than the ohl so his 4 points in 2 game are more impressive

Invisible most of the game. Scores 4 points.

The thought process to come to that conclusion is, quite frankly, the stupidest thing I've ever read.

I don't care if you think he's a good prospect, a bad prospect, or whatever. That's your choice. But your original statement was false. All I'm saying is don't lie to make a point.

He looks like a NCAA veteran out there

Can't wait to see him on the team.

Much faster than Nick though

Definitely faster/more agile.

Point wise what would we consider a good season from him?

He's looked good the first 2 games. He can really fly out there.

Point wise what would we consider a good season from him?

PPG would be an awesome freshman season. Anything above that and we are talking about top 10 pick production.

He's a zone entry demon. Still baffled he fell to 21st, but I won't complain lol!
