Going Pasta. 13p in last 19 AHL games, he seemed to be getting his shit together. Still a work in progress but he has some untapped potential

Helleson. Might be one of those guys who plays better in NHL structure than AHL. I really liked the games he got in with the ducks in 2023.

 

[McDonald19]

Lots of boom or bust and projects now. Personal preference at this point.

I’ll go with Pasta since he make progress in the second half of the AHL season.

 

[Anarchynate]

Really insane how Massé is still available.

Not saying I agree or disagree just curious why you think this?

 

[Arthuros]

Pastu again for me.

Some players perform better in a more structured environment, especially those whose individual skills aren't really the forefront of their game. I liked helleson a lot more when he played with NHL caliber talent than the Helter-skelter nature of the AHL. We will see.

Reminds me of how things were in Anaheim when the MLB team had Mike Napoli and Joe Saunders performing better in MLB than minor league ball. While Jeff Mathis and Ervin Santana were considered better prospects they had mixed results of inconsistencies on the field. Saunders was far more consistent and you knew what you were getting while with Santana you either got CY Santana or a HR derby pitcher.
