Player Discussion Jacob Bryson (2017, 99th) No QO, 6/30/2024

That 2017 draft class sure is interesting though. Especially given how much Baker loves Davidsson who I never get to see. He LOVES him. UPL is having a monster year and getting massive attention. Laaksonen we all know about his meteoric rise in status. Bryson is one of the best D in college.

Providence Goes as Bryson Does

Sounds like the type of player you want in the organization.

Yep, the assist he was pretty close to not even being in the ice - he had sprung the breakout and was heading for a change. He gets the puck, moves it to safety and creates for his team. I don’t care how big or small he is, the kid is a player.

 

[Buffalo Norsemen]

If they loose Bryson next year that will hurt.

Looking forward to seeing him play today vs. Cornell, for a chance to go to the Frozen Four. It's on ESPN 2 at 4:00pm

ESPN app can provide the feed if you have a subscription. I know I've been double to triple screening the tournament as usual.

I hope he does well again today and continues his season. I've loved his game since the first time I saw him.

Nice play. Bad goaltending but nice play anyway.

 

[Chainshot]

So far so good against Cornell for the Friars. Up 2-0 part way through the 2nd period.

 

[Ace]

Looking like he won’t have to go far to sign a contract when his season ends lol.

 

[Chainshot]

ESPN's crew has done isolations on him regularly this game, right from the opening.

He'll be signed. Fitzgerald was signed. Borgen was signed. They'll get Bryson done.

 

[Chainshot]

My favorite part of his game today has been the couple of quick step-ups he's made to seal people along the wall. He just had another at the Cornell blueline that popped the puck free to the only Friar in the offensive zone. His timing is tremendous.

For like two years the ESPN app does not work with "my" Spectrum account even though it should for things like ESPN2 which is definitely part of the cable package. According to Google it is a common issue with Spectrum cable customers. Really obnoxious because they have great NCAA coverage.

It would be an epic collapse/comeback for Cornell to come out on top now. 3-0 for Bryson's Friars after 2.

I wish I could help you out there. I watch a lot on the ESPNU and Big10TV feeds.

 

[DolanPlsGoSabres]

Just saw for the first second time that he's from my hometown. Makes me want to root for him even more.

EDIT: Looks like I just forgot

Not like he has a lot of talented players ahead of him in this org to block him from playing time.

I'm a Cornell fan so a little bitter Providence got this round and last round as de facto home games while Cornell stayed in a hotel with no power last night. But Providence was better today. And Bryson was the best player on either team. Mostly on a hockey IQ argument too, he's smart as anything, good positioning, good decisions.

Named to the Regional All-Tournament team

So are we 2 years out on Bryson? Seems college defensemen transition quicker to the NHL like McCabe and Butler.

Depends on when they get him signed. I could see him being Borgen-esque if he signs this spring -- most of the year in the AHL, then a late recall next year. Then in contention in 2 years for one of the openings on LD.

If they sign him after the frozen four...

Next year AHL
The following year call up with a shot to make the team.
Year 3 on team

I see a guy who is smart and mobile and decisive enough to be called up by the end of next season and then a regular the year after that.

Borgen development path

Borgen development path

While this could happen...it depends greatly on how team does next year.

If buffalo was in a WC playoff race he would have only got called up due to injury. I think part of his call up is to evaluate what we have.
