Not great goaltending, but they don't ask how, they ask how many -

With 8 points in his last 7 games as a 20 year old rookie in the AHL it's fair to say he's finding his game now after the hand injury and missing training camp.

He's always been fairly brittle. That's the real concern with his development, how much time he misses because of this.
First multiple assist/multiple point outing as an AHLer last night with two assists and a gifted ENG. That brings him to 7 points in his last 7 games -- his game is starting to come together at this level.

It's gotta be true.
Too much hockey sense and compete to not figure it out eventually.
His 3rd goal/9th point in the last 10 games.
Another multi-point effort featuring this nifty little backhand assist -
...and this snipe to win it in OT -

Two more goals tonight including a short-handed ENG.
This little give-and-go with Novikov earlier was nice -

He looks to have done a bit of growing. Kid is going to be a player.

Really hope they resist the temptation and let him slow cook in Rochester. Let the boys go on a Calder run and avoid the rot pervading the Sabres.
Same. Granted, the rumblings about "NHL ready prospects" might also mean that Rosen gets dealt since he's at that point now which takes out their most dynamic scorer at the AHL level and that would put an obstacle to any long playoff runs IMO.
15 pts and +11 in his last 16 games. Nice improvement. I don't see any real reason to bring him up this year other than maybe a game or two as a reward and a little taste of what the NHL looks like to keep him hungry over the summer.

On draft day i actually preferred him for the Canucks over Lekkerimaki but I'm happy with what Lekk has shown and Ostlund has the potential to be a very good top 6 player.
That whole trio with Lekk, Ohgren and Ostlund were so nicely complementary and it looks like all three are rounding nicely into form.
Shorty in Syracuse, his 23rd point in the last 24 games. Prospects all over that one - Komarov with the intercept and pass, Wahlberg driving the middle lane to give him all that room:
Edit - first hattrick for an Amerk this season with his third of the night, this time on the PP late.

At this point I'd be hard pressed to choose which one is going to be the better player.
Stun osti de bon joueur. Thankfully(or sadly) for him he doesn't play for the Habs
