Was reasonably good at development camp, didn't stick out either way. This upcoming year will be huge for him.

2 goal tonight, let see if he can bounce back. He gave a lot more time of ice than last year with WIS

6 points in 8 games, +5. Not "tearing it up" necessarily but definitely coming into his own at the NCAA level. Transfer seems to have worked out well for him.

Playing with better players like Isaac Howard (who I believe he played with a good amount at the NTDP) definitely helps
Yes and he plays on the second line. I can see a bottom 6 player down the line but he will not have a primary role in the nhl. He need to produce more at his D+2.
Finally showing what he can do. His talent isnt worth a 1st round pick, but he still could develop into a serviceable role player.

If a player projects as an NHL’er of any sort, I don’t see how you can say they shouldn’t have been a first round pick. Getting a regular NHL’er in the late first isn’t bad. Plenty of firsts don’t even stick in the NHL. And it’s early to know with Stramel what he’ll be.
He’s equaled last year’s production in 10 games. And is doing so on a Top 5 team in the country. Don’t shut the door on him being an NHLer just yet, he may just be the classic late blooming PWF. I know @Pavel Buchnevich is happy for these developments

This thread wouldn't be so quiet if he wasn't having a solid season. Quieting the doubters.
Also a Wild prospect so we don’t rush here to post endless pages of crap the way certain fan bases do over a prospect at a level that most any team has.
I don't know if it's physical maturity, or more confidence playing under a coach who knows him, but Stramel's skating and decisions look better and more purposeful.

He’s a power forward type. His offense is at the net. He’ll probably have more NHL success than the two forwards who did a lot of the work, so I’m not sure it’s as important as you are suggesting.

Also not sure it's quite a critic silencer. Any much less production playing where he's playing would just be a further indictment.
But he's at least earned some leeway by approaching expectations so far.
He has a high floor, too. 1C on the best team in the country. Defends well, wins draws and skates well for a big RHSThe GWG against his old teamGlad for him, stlill think that he have a low ceiling, maybe middle 6 player or a 4th line center.
Hope he can continue on his pace.
Not an ideal ceiling for where he was picked, but still a nice prospect to have.
