Competing for a job Murray said. Hope this means it if Alex earns a spot he will be sticking. Alex has a very mature game, coming to the OHL and playing so many games last year was great for his development of getting a taste of what a long season is. Going to be interesting just how much Alex's forces the Sabres hand in sticking. IMO He's that good he just may stick.

If he can go to the AHL, I'm assuming that's where he will go.
Can't wait to see how he turns out. Seems like there are so many danglers in the league or entering the league now and I love it

The best Nylander Bruins can have Vesey now.

based on his 75 pt ohl season? lol.
wishful thinking. lets see if he can dominate the AHL, and show well in the NHL before making any claims about who is better

Right, just like how Matthews had to prove it in the NHL before we started seeing all the "Eichel can't carry Matthews skates" posts like they were fact.

Good stuff, hope he does well. I'm curious to see what kind of career he has...there seems to be a lot of variance in the predictions.
