Prospect Info: Filip Mesar

[alko]

And another injury issues

 

[windycity]

This team actually had Mesar ahead of Hutson.

I doubt we were alone

 

[NotProkofievian]

I doubt we were alone

Mesar had no business going in the first. Hutson was a first for me.

Adam Nicholas, development guru, wherefore art thou?

He's a development coach, not a magicien.

 

[Rapala]

Someone in the Rocket's broadcast pointed out the runway is getting short very quickly as far as the playing for the Habs goes. I didn't realize that Mesar was only 6 months younger than Kapanen.

 

[ReHabs]

He's a development coach, not a magicien.

He's not much of a development coach either if you look at the evidence.

 

[Favster]

He's been with the Habs for less than 3 years. That is a very short period of time to evaluate a development coach.

I really don't think the problem with Mesar is his development. You can usually see early on that one skill that makes a kid a future NHLer - I've yet to see that with him.

His skating, hands and playmaking are all top 6 NHLer tools. He is suffering from Ylonen-itis where he doesn't want to get into the middle enough to use those skills to his advantage. He has to become more inside driven if he wants a NHL future.

But right now all of that potential adaptation and progress is being wiped by two big injuries.

He actually has a single translatable skill , and that's making a decent NHL level dish out of a zone entry after carrying the puck , the problem is everything else in his game is awful

So, at best, after 3 years Nicholas has accomplished nothing? How’s that any better. He can’t get Mešar, Dach, or Slaf to improve their game. Those are our three earliest acquired ‘future core’ talents.

It doesn’t bode well at all.

It’s his fault if Dach is made of glass and Slaf only shows up in the last 3 months of the season each year, you’re right bud!

I wish I could get Adam’s job — not responsible for anything even after three years, never criticised. Reputation intact, anonymous fans arguing passionately in my defence despite having zero evidence of any success. Great gig.

Mešar is a great example of a player who has not developed appropriately. Whether he didn’t buy-in sufficiently or didn’t listen also directly implicates the coach who couldn’t exercise any influence on him.

I wish I was an nhl players and have no responsabilities if I get injured since my junior years or don’t give a damn until the new year, works this way too.

Is this Adam Nicholas’ burner account? Be honest

if that is the case, front of net is not good for him. he won't be a NHL guy

I guess maybe, I've just never been blown away whenever I watch him play, maybe I'm understimating his skill level. He obviously has some skill but I don't see that one thing that makes me believe he has a future in the NHL. We'll see if he can turn it around.

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

Adam Nicholas, development guru, wherefore art thou?

The problem with mes at is attitude. He thinks he’s owed more than he proved based on playing pro in Slovakia. Since, he has repeatedly failed to meet expectations, slandered his teammates and sulked when got cut. I’ve said it before , personally I don’t think he’ll ever play for the Habs

There’s alot of highlights of him, maybe watch a few. Saying he doesnt have NHL skills is ignorant.

delete please

Original, are you his ex?

I don’t really give a damn about him perso. But to say he should developp the skills of someone in crunches is something else. The problem with Slaf is not skills. When he decide to play like a beast (mid season last year, this year since the break), he produce and look like a first OV. Hugo said it recently in an interview. They didnt drafted Slaf to play like a Jack Hughes, otherwise, they would had draft somebody else (his words).

I’m not saying Nicholas is perfect, but to say Dach development is his fault is beyond hilarious.

I understand perfectly -- nothing in the past three seasons can be attributed to Nicholas but he's also doing a good job and shouldn't be doubted. Very interesting perspective.

 

[LaP]

Hutson was a 1st for 0 NHL team so whatever he was a 1st or not for you is honestly irrelevant. Hee was not drafted in the 1st that's the reality that can't be changed.

Maybe Nicholas should put injured players on NHL25 to developp their skillsets, interesting perspective!!

Can you elaborate on how he sould have develop an injured Dach, really curious to read your reasoning
