That's besides the point.

BHawks77 is claiming Vlasic is a surefire NHLer, meanwhile Ian Mitchell is not.

At this point in their careers, Ian Mitchell has a more substantial resume.

Vlasic playing one outstanding game doesn't change that.

I clearly said no one can say for certain if Vlasic can maintain this level. That is the big difference you sold Mitchell as sure thing while claiming Vlasic is never going to be NHL player.

Notre Dame beat Boston U. 11..Landon Slaggert got his 3rd goal of the season for ND...however he only generated just the 1 shot on goal and was+1...

Ryan Greene got the lone BU goal ...he too only generated the 1 shot on goal but finished Even..
Greene won 13 of 20 draws..
BU outscore ND 44 to 26 ...Ryan Bischel in the eND net stopped 43/44 shots to get the win...so ND lucky their goalie was on fire since te ice was tilted even if the score in their favour.BU out shot-attempted ND 78 to 46 ...so
amajoritybofvthevganevin the ND end defending ..but sometimes you win when the ice tilted so much agaibstvyou if your goalie saves you..

Macklin Celebrini for BU got zero points but
unlike Bedard afaivst Avs at least he generated 5 shots on goal..


Providence upset Denver 4-3 ...Taige Harding and Collin Kelley each had an assist for Providence...Aiden Thompson had an assist for Denver and was 13/21 on draws.....
.
.In the big Minnesota 4-9 win over Northt Dakota, Oliver Moore had 1goal 1a +2 and 4 shots on goal...Sam Rinzel 1 a +3 and 2 shots on goal

Anyone watch the Michigan game? Kinda crazy Nazar couldnt get a point in a 7 goal effort.

He’s apparently cantering the third line for whatever reason, and I’m guessing very little powerplay time.

Maybe the coach doesn’t like his game or whatever, but if this continues, I think the Hawks have to sign him this year just to save him from this nonsense.

He was planning to sign regardless

Nazar’s a bit of an enigma to me. He looked lights out at the world junior summer showcase, was as explosive as I’ve ever seen him and making plays out of nothing left and right. I was raving about him all summer and had him as our second best prospect behind Bedard La

Honestly though, his position on the Michigan team has been warranted so far. He looks sloppy for lack of a better term. Turns the puck over quite often and isn’t really much of a consistent threat. Plus he hasn’t shown that separation speed he’s known for. He’s had opportunities to play up the lineup but the team has never been better for it.

I’m a little concerned that the injury’s lingering at this point and he’s experienced a set back or two.

I didn't see the entire UM/OSU game tonight but I saw Nazar skate down a guy on a breakaway and prevented him from getting a shot on goal. His speed looked pretty good on that play.

I kind of agree on the sloppy thing - it's like he doesn't mesh well with his linemates. He does have 3 goals and 1 assist in the 5 games he's played so it's not like he's done nothing.

Chicago will sign him

He could've been a one and done if he didn't get injured
 
I watched last nights Michigan game through two periods and there's truth to what @Hattrick Kane, @ello, and @EbonyRaptor posted.

He was moved off the top line with McGroarty and Brinley and skated with Eernisse and Schifsky. He was on the 2nd PP unit and was back to playing a regular turn on the PK.

His speed and hustle did prevent a scoring chance on a partial breakaway when the game was in doubt. He had a couple nice passes to set-up prime chances for his wingers and had a good look himself. His work on the 1st PK was really good. All happening when the game was in doubt. He certainly does not shy away from tough areas on the ice.

His sloppiness is in some cases due to trying to do too much. When beating a defender to gain the zone he'll try to beat a second defender when chip to the corner is a better move. He'll try to make a difficult pass to a winger when finding a open point man might be a better option.

Slaggert with 3 goals in 4 games. Too early to call it a bounce back season but Slaggert is where he needs to be(And usually is) to score against BU.

There is a player on the KHL team Sibir Novosibirsk named Nazarov, who wears the same number 91 as Frank Nazar. Not relevant to anything, I just thought it a funny coincidence. That or maybe Frank is moonlighting in Siberia...

Any relation to Andrei? He was a long time middleweight who could play a bit in the 90's and aughts.

Players have great small stretches of play all the time.

Kahun had 4 points in his first 5 games. Few years later and he's not in the league anymore.

Just have to see how things play out.

Kahun arguably should still be in the league tbh not a great example
 
Frank Nazar did not havexa good weekend in the 2 Michigan games Friday and Saturday night...He got Zero points out of tge 2 games...Apparently hevis only tgec3C pn Michigan as T J Hughes centers tgeirc2nd kine...He got off to a good start in theirc4 previous games but stalked on these kastc2..Was hecdenotedcto linec3candvliuting?
Whatever ..if hevis not being g featuredwith their top 6 forwards on the top 2 lines then it willbe difficuktvto put up "brakeout" level numbers to "star" and the prospect lights may grow dimmer if they just make him a checker on line 3...
If this persists then ifvhecstays 1 more seadon after this maybe he gets top line bolling b promise for next season or goes to the transfer portal..
 
Feels a tad aggressive for a player that was in his third year of draft eligibility at the time and so is two years older than the first rounders from that year but I’m glad Pronman likes our guy. I enjoy watching Safonov and I have to remind myself he’s not 24 already because that’s the age he will be when he is eligible to come over. He seems like he can be a very good middle six center. He had a slow start to the year but he’s playing better.
