Can anyone who watches the Marlies/Cyclones tells us more about Chas Sharpe. Does he have the potential to jump to the Marlies? Guy has a cannon of a shot. Is a 6’3 RHD. How is he defensively?
Cyclones won 2-1, on a legit heater lately.
Sharpe looked fine defensively. Had some snarl around the net, good outlets most of the time, seemed comfortable with the puck. Skating looked good, decent mobility and edges. Didn’t get eyes on any bursts of speed, so no comment there. Positioning seemed fine. No huge defensive lapses, one lazy pass that didn’t end up hurting. Didn’t seem to get too much time starting in the D zone or pk. The shot gets through.
At least for one game, to an untrained eye.
Other players:
Marko Sikic scored both goals, on an AHL deal with the Marlies. More of a north south guy, he’s pretty big and has good speed.
Ty Voit had the most creativity and best hands on the ice, pretty easily. Great vision at that level. But ya, he’s pretty small.
Kressler played the kinda game you’d expect. Two way, quick, good defensive awareness.
Sikic the only Marlie/Leaf to hit the scorecard.
The goalie there was quick and made some ‘oohh’ level saves too.
