I'm not sure what this says about BP and/or the big club, and I could be wrong with this recollection, but it seems like there have been guys who were called up and did better in the NHL than they did in the AHL. I've definitely noticed that with +/- stats.For those who have seen Bridgeport games this season, is there any hope for our prospects?
Just by stats, it seems that Jeffries is the only viable prospect. Foudy and Karlsson have scored a bit but they’ve been disappointments based on their draft status and they haven’t exactly taken a leap this season.
Maggio and Dufour have to be the biggest disappointments. 4 goals in 45 games between the 2 of them. I know they were 5th round picks but their post-draft seasons clearly got my hopes up way too high.
If there was better progression at Bridgeport, Lou’s typical TDL moves or even standing pat might be defensible. Not now. No way.
I don't consider Foudy a prospect because he has NHL experience from another organization.As for other players in BPT, I still have hope that Maggio can play in the NHL as a bottom 6. I'm willing to write off the fact that he doesn't have Ruslan Ishkakov skating alongside of him. I also would keep an eye out for Marshall Warren on defense. He's just started his pro career.For those who have seen Bridgeport games this season, is there any hope for our prospects?

Thought the same with Thiesing and it's been quiet around him.I thiught Gatcomb showed something in preseason, let's see how he progresses the next 18 months
