Yes, and he was really bad during this call up.

Two things can be true at the same time.

He was my top prospect behind Demidov at the start of the season. So I believe in him.

But he was admittedly trash.

I don't think he is as bad as he was during his call up.

For him it's about consistency. On some nights, in the AHL, he would be the best D on the ice -- On some others, one of the worst.

He's like Petry, but in the AHL.

He must find consistency in the lower ranks before making the NHL.













And I maintain he was trash during this call up.

Agreed, he was really bad and needs another year in the AHL at the minimum imo. He has a lot to learn about positioning and reading the ice.

I easily had Reinbacher ahead of him before the season as he is just so much smarter and at a younger age.

His most obvious weakness has always been hockey IQ or at least he appears to have low hockey IQ. Low confidence and nerves can often mask themselves as low IQ so there is no reason to panic but IQ is the single most important trait by an order of magnitude for a hockey player and there has always been concern that he just may not have it.

Hopefully something clicks at some point but we have plenty of time to let him develop as he is very young and has missed significant development time.
