Not bad for a bigger guy. Like everything it takes work to get to NHL level.
I will have to take your idea here cause really have not watched him at all, a few clips, and while i follow the london knights and our prospects there, i have not watched Connor at all.
What do you think of Dalyn Wakely a guy we took in his 3rd draft? Was looking to watch Beau and started watching some plays of Wakely. Kinda looks like a Foegele in the making? Looks at least like a possession guy with a big motor -- a fourth liner with hands?

I think he has talent but as an overager I think he should be putting up more points than he is. In Penticton he didn't look too dynamic skating wise IMO. He's a project, time will tell how much he can improve over the next 2-3 years.

Samuel Jonsson with his fourth straight shutout. 10-0-0, 1.29 GAA, .943 SV%.

Hasn't allowed a goal since November 13th.
Lets hope he gets 30 games in as he only played 8 the year before. Hopefully he makes the jump to the SHL next year. If he does ....Byrnas hold his right or not?

It’s ridiculous how Savoie is seen as a bust on the mains. Is it because he’s an Oilers prospect now. 2 pts / game in his D+1? Like what more can you ask for? 20 game sample in the AHL playing on one of the leagues worst offences can’t take the shine off that so soon.

Yeh I got my worries about Chaulk. But as a Cup contending team, wheelin and dealin 1sts, and graduating prospects, we also don't have much down there these days for Savoie to work with.

Like imagine if Reid Schaeffer (14pts in 19 games) was on Savoie's wing. Or if a blue chipper like Broberg was still a #1 D-man making passes for that team.

Is Jonsson that good? Why is he in Allsvenskan?
I feel like you have to be at least somewhat good to do what he's done, but he is on an extremely good defensive team. Like there's another top5 team in that league with double his team's goals against.

This is pretty much his first year playing pro. He only played a few games last year and ended up sitting basically the whole season as a third stringer in the semi-pro league.

I'm not sure who owns his SHL rights(if anyone), but I could see him moving up there after this season.

They have a right to their opinion. Savoie should be producing more but the whole team's offense is floundering. Philp looked NHL ready and his stats aren't all that great either. The whole team needs a revamping by the looks of things. Chaulk isn't JJ's or Bowman's guy so hopefully they have some guys in mind to replace him if he is seen as part of the issue.

I don't mind opinions, but if they are calling him a bust based on 20 games in the AHL and acting as if his D+1 didn't exist, I wonder how genuine it is. But whatever, I think the Perreault trade signals that management knows they need more offence down there. I wonder if they should get an AHL journeyman with a history of production in the League just to bolster the offence down there and give the prospects a helping hand. Today's Alexander Giroux. Shouldn't cost that much but you get your prospects going with guys that know how to produce down there.
