The right move if they're not gonna play him in the NHL. But as someone else pointed out, he will probably be challenged to fight by every goon in the AHL.
I guess this means Vesey are close to be ready?

Oh boy...the difference maker Vesey....clubs in the upcoming games will be shaking in their boots .

There's still plenty of room for him to improve into a full time 4th liner in the NHL. And I think it starts and ends with his edgework.

That is really my only knock on him.

Thinking he will be anything more than a 4th line player is putting way too much on his shoulders. That said, if he can get his feet under himself? Stop falling, skating to the puck or where it's headed, not past it or where it was. He clearly thinks the game well enough. He has better offensive instincts and tools than most enforcers. He's more than adequate with speed.

Learn control and timing at NHL SPEED, and he's gonna have a worthwhile NHL career.

It's a small tweak to make, but for his role and the competition for a spot, it's the difference between leagues and or the stands.

He's gotta be reliable for 10 minutes a night and not get smoked by another teams top 6 when it's shut-down time.

Although it still feels early, is there any chance Berard gets the callup? Or is it for sure just an open spot for Vesey?

Really excited to see Berard get into a Pro game when it happens. He's been a fun prospect to follow as an outsider, love the way he plays.

Cheers!

barring injuries no one is getting called up at this point imo. Vesey is almost back and then we have a full 13 Fs

I don’t see them wasting him on a 4th line so no.

His path to the NHL will be if/when someone in the top 9 gets hurt or traded.

He might still be on the team if he didn't waste a week of his off-season learning to fight, and another day filming a commercial, when he could have been learning how to turn.

 

[NYR Viper]

He needs minutes. This is a good thing and he can be called up at any time.

 

[Ben Grimm]

You can't win a cup with him, but you can win a cup w/o him.

 

[Ruggs225]

He needs to play. I still think he will become a good 4th liner. But he has to learn and get better.

Also has a great attitude so i believe he will get there

He does not look happy in his Hartford player portrait.

The 14th, at best, forward in the organization belongs in the minors
