oh come on Getzbald stop slacking!!
Definitely can.... Michkov and Fantilli
Odd.... Fantilli is much more like Getzlaf than Carlson is.
It's not lazy at all, it's a perfect comparison. Both ultra talented playmakers with very good defensive abilities, similar size and skating as well.
You could not pick more different players.
i easily take Carlsson over anyone but Bedard
Bigger players tend to look slower than they are.
That's hardly a bag skate. They are testing his endurance and stamina. Grabbing a baseline to work with from day 1.
It’s conditioning tests so they can see their progress in 3 months when training camp starts.
Sorry hard to tell over text sometimes haha.
I know guys like to pretend a 3 inch difference is nothing but...
He said that's his primary focus, could you imagine how good he'd be if he improved his acceleration and learns how to maximize his size advantage (which he's already really good at)? That's probably what the staff envisioned when they took him.
Don't forget about all the muscle he still has to add to that frame. He already showed in the SHL that as lanky as he is, he's really hard to knock off the puck. If he can commit to building muscle and improve those first few steps, he'll be a force.
