Player Discussion: Anthony Cirelli

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

Another prospect who I think has earned his own thread. I think of all the prospects we have coming up the pipeline Cirelli is the one I'm most excited about. He thrives so much under pressure and never shrinks from the big moment. Anyway... discuss!!

Wonder if him or Brett Howden will end up better...

Seems like he has a motor that won't let him not succeed. He's going to be a good NHL player.

I always envisioned he'd have a Dominic Moore type career.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Seems like a sure fire middle 6 player to me

 

[Sticktape]

Called up. Any predictions?

 

[RDTBay4]

Could a late-blooming prospect become Lightning's 'Captain Clutch'?

 

[Stormbreaker]

 

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

Kid is gonna score tonight I'm calling it now

Well, you called that one nicely!

 

[RussianGuyovich]

Hey guys I think this kid is gonna be good.

[The Gongshow]

Goal and assist so far tonight. Not a bad debut, kid!

 

[The Macho King]

He's been the prospect I'm most excited about (although I think Katchouk may end up being an absolute steal).

Katchouk is my favorite. Did we just become best friends?

 

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

Well, you called that one nicely!

Once you see enough of Cirelli that kind of prediction becomes very easy to make. Believe me I am not one to call a shot like that but the fact that Cirelli would have a big night in a big situation like his first game was about as obvious as eating something if you're hungry

 

[The Macho King]

Yep!

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

Glad we kept him. He always made Howden expendable, IMO

Cirelli fits the way we play much better than Howden. Howden would have trouble skating with this squad.

[Sky04]

Kids accelleration is insane, he garnered a lot of hype during his last WJC.

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Who is that defenseman and what was he doing on that pass?

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

3 for 8 on faceoffs in his first game, but I'm interested to see more. Not sure about with Syracuse, but he was a faceoff winning machine in juniors and especially in the WJC a year ago.
