Prospect Info: Logan Mailloux Part 3 The Only Hockey Talk Thread

[Ozmodiar]

He’s 7th on the (healthy) depth chart, so he can stay until Guhle returns.

If he has a good year, he could leapfrog Struble and Barron. At some point the org will have to choose between him and Barron. I believe one will be part of a trade package at some point.

I have to say, I hate to harp on a young player, I've seen Mailloux play in all NHL games, a few Junior games and a few in Laval. He has NHL size, NHL shot, good hands, decent offence but every time I watch him play I am always and I mean always wanting more out of him. I don't know what it is but I don't feel like he is a winning player. He may play in the NHL but I think he will always be one of those players who should be better than he is but never really gets there. Hope I am wrong, because he has everything going for him

Hopefully he can be solid in whatever role we need him in. May not be a game breaker.

Mailloux can use more seasoning but to me I have serious doubts that Barron becomes part of the top 6...he just doesn't have it defensively.

It's going to be interesting to see if the healthy top 6 is:

Matheon - Guhle
Hutson - Savard
Xhekaj - Struble

That's a lot of LD's.

The pairing of Struble and Xhekaj has the potential to be the perfect bottom pairing on D.
