Prospect Info: Marlies/Prospects Thread - 2021/22

Reminder that this should be Robertson's rookie AHL season based off of age. Pandemic allowed him in early last year. Having a fantastic season.

Since coming back, he's been on the level he was at junior

 

[stickty111]

I don't think he has proven anything yet, but he also needs to get more than garbage minutes to show what he can bring.

For sure. Not saying he should be permanently in. Hasn't proven that yet but he's shown he can handle a small role.

Who’s been playing in goal since Woll and Hutchinson have been injuries frequently this year.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Should I be surprised to see Kivihalme on the ice for 4 GA today?

 

[stickty111]

From 4-1 to 6-4. In typical Moore style, Marlies callapse. The fact that have this clown behind the bench is disturbing.
Just lose the rest of the games to get him fired.

 

[stickty111]

If not for Kallgren, Marlies would be one of the worst teams in the league. He literally saved Moore's job

 

[nuck]

He kind of looks like now what we thought 2019 Nicky was going to become. Please no more injury interruptions for this kid. He needs a break and the team needs a high end return on some players taken outside the 1st.

4 pp goals against. Brutal way to lose.

 

[Atomos2]

Can someone explain how on a 6 on 4 needing a goal, Ho sang is not one of the 6 you put out there. Is Moore that dumb?

 

[SeaOfBlue]

So 5 GA. Even better.

At least he finally got a goal. Only took him 23 games.

He has been consistently used as a top pairing guy this year, and yet he only has 4 points in 23 games and disasterous defensive play in his own end to show for it. We never should have even re-signed him 2 years ago, and I am glad Kivihalme will (hopefully) finally be gone after this year.

It is 100% on Moore for continuing to trot him out there at this point. He has other options. Both Rubins and Krys were in the press box and have been at least decent this year. Rifai hasn't been given a chance yet, and it is not like Dahlstrom and Kral have not been great in a top 4 role this year, so you could just use Rifai in a bottom pairing role to get his feet wet. Even Hellickson is at least a semi-passable option on a bottom pairing if you are really lacking choices. Kivihalme should not be dressed in another game.

Par for the course with him.

This should not be a bubble playoff team based on the quality of the roster. Sure, the defensive quality could be a little bit better. I hope Hardy can address that this offseason. However, Moore makes it a much bigger issue than it is with his decision making and his inability to install any kind of defensive structure.

Friedman says we're meeting with Knies this week but he may want to go back to Michigan.

I'm concerned. I want him under contract.

Did you not see the part where friedge said there were no concerns about singing him?

Yea, if he doesn't sign now, no stress. He may just not feel ready yet. He's basically a top 6 or 9 forward we will add after the TDL for free next season.

 

[Warden of the North]

Sure. But things often go wrong for the Leafs

 

[Warden of the North]

My mistake.

Point still stands he wants to go back to the NCAA.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Sure. But things often go wrong for the Leafs

When was the last time an NCAA guy that we owned did not want to sign with us?

 

[uncleben]

Dakota Joshua?
But Idk if we were eyeing him in return, anyway

 

[WTFMAN99]

We chose not to sign him.

 

[Warden of the North]

Who was the last Top 60 NCAA guy we had anyways?

 

[mistaclick]

I feel like a pretty decent pitch will be made to him... no reason to not want to sign here at some point. Pretty obvious fit

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Dakota Joshua?
But Idk if we were eyeing him in return, anyway

We didn't want him, not the other way around.

Who was the last Top 60 NCAA guy we had anyways?

Woll was #62. Had no issues signing him. No issues signing Abruzzese either.

 

[Prominence]

Dominic Toninato? We drafted him in the 6th round. He played 4 years in the ncaa, but wasn’t signed for some reason even though he played 4th line duties with other teams.

I believe we didn't want to sign him either. We didn't have many spots left and while I think the Leafs believed he could have been a decent 4th liner or depth option, they had better prospects to develop.
