Player Discussion Marat Khusnutdinov

Oh I dont think he is going to make it either. He seems to always play against the teams system. I think he has talent but its instinctive talent and doesn’t know how to apply that within a system. Hope I am wrong and at least they give him a good 10 game tryout to make sure.

I am going to defend him a litttle though too. Seen Fraser Minten’s stats. Everyone saying he is a great prospect but doesn’t have the greatest numbers either.

All I am saying is that he hasn’t had the same amount of games in the NHL as Knut has had. So it’s hard to compare. Minten is probably a better gauge but even that comes with caveats.

Agreed. One thing about Minten is he has shown flashes when he was called up with the leafs

It was Brazeau they traded for him right?

Couldn't be more night and day between the guy they traded and the guy they got back. Like dealing a barge for a speed boat.

Hoping he keeps it up and it isn't just all adrenaline results right now.

Yes it was for Brazeau but he's a left winger playing in Freddy's spot

Lysell has looked good in the chances he’s received too, we just aren’t giving him any experience.

Like what I`ve seen so far, think he`d make a solid 3rd line winger next year, has a motor that doesn`t quit which is refreshing

 

[CellyHard]

Think he’s getting a little overhyped to a degree (shooting 100%) also probably should have had another assist on that unbelievable Ullmark save.

I like his energy, forechecking and poise with the puck

For a smaller guy, he is both rather strong on the puck and very good at positioning himself to not get knocked off the puck easily at all. It may be more of the latter but still.

Also has quite the vision and speed.

Its a small sample size but you cant help but continue to wonder how the F Minny let him go in a trade for Brazeau

Minnesota loves getting fleeced by the bruins.

for sure, I simply can`t imagine what Trader Bill saw in Brazz that he had to have for that return? Fire able offense
