Prospect Info: Filip Mesar

[CHwest]

I hope he can keep this up. Remember he was 2 PPG in his first two months in the OHL last year...

Took him that long to figure out his line mates sucked.

To be fair it all went to pot after he came back from injury and found himself on a pretty garbage line. IF I’m not mistaken which I could be

If he keeps a 2PPG the next 20 games, he's going to finish the year with 2 PPG. No wjc, no bad teammates and with one foot in the NHL, i doubt he's going to fumble it, too smart for that.

He's not going too.. but he'll still be a very, very good player for the Rocket this year.

He is such a weird player to gauge. Very disappointing OHL career but strong U20 WJC showings. Strong pro camp at 18. Now he starts strong in the AHL.

I don’t recall a player having such a resume

Starting in fire happen in the NHL and AHL for player from no where. I think we will have a better picture after 40 games. If he is under point per game at that time, it’s a bit underwhelming

Strong OHL playoffs too

It's very hard to be a ppg in the AHL as a rookie at 19-20 over a full season. Most players who can do that end up being top 6 player in the NHL.

Jason Robertson at 20 in the AHL : 47 points in 60 games.
Hintz at 20 in the AHL : 35 points in 70 games
JT Miller at 20 in the AHL : 43 points in 41 games
Nylander at 19 in the AHL : 45 points in 38 games
Filip Forsberg at 19 in the AHL : 34 points in 47 games

Underwhelming? Essentially your expectations are either he's amongst the point leaders in the AHL or he's having a bad season?

You guys are something, poor guy is screwed with the fanbase. I hope he knows what he's up against.

Do y’all think, now that Mesar is in Laval, that sometimes he calls Slaf to hang out, but then Slafs always like “sorry little bro, me and Cole are having tapas tonight, first line only” and that makes Mesar sad because he wishes he was one of the boys?

It’s because if he is not producing point on a regular basis, he won’t be top 6 in the NHL. And good luck to be a bottom 6 at his size. I’m not expecting more with him or another prospect, but if he has a so-so year in the AHL, he fell in the category like no big hope.

Last year, only 10 players played 40 games with PPG. Similar to Mešár (age and size) were Logan Stankoven, Mavrik Bourque and Matt Coronato. If he can do it, he is in pretty good company.
