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

[Skip Bayless]

Just a special player. Though...again...his goals are the work of him....alone. Michigan has just average players this year. What he's doing right now is even more impressive.

It feels like he's on a mission, much more goal scoring driven that I expected. He took the team on his shoulders.

I would not be the least bit surprised if he turns pro next season. It’s early, but the way he’s playing thus far indicates it’s a possibility. Time will tell if that’s the right thing for his development.

If he continues this pace - I think he might transition to the AHL next year.

That's a big if, but like think about the points that Leonard and Smith put up last year, but they were playing together with Perrault.

Hage is doing this with a very weak supporting cast, his best winger is Moldenhauer which is a mid round pick by the Leafs.

That cut back at the blue line was a thing of beauty. What a skater this guy is!

It's crazy how much he looks like Eichel on the ice.

Much better looking though, Eichel looks like Marv from Home Alone

How’s Phil Kessel making out in that department btw?

Would be difficult to do with Demidov AND Hage looking for offensive minutes in a stacked top 6, especially with Laine having a year left on the deal.

I say leave him in the NCAA next season, let him grow his offensive game, another shot at the U20 (my guess is he gets an invite this Dec)

Next year we can focus on Demidov, 26-27 will be Hage’s time.

Whatever happens between Kessel and his hotdogs is Kessel and those hotdogs's business okay??
