#2, 3, 4, and 5 will be a solid top 4 for the next couple years. Lots to look forward to with this young group.

Greer is seriously skilled for his age as rookie, if he can grow a few inches and put on some weight he’s going to be a weapon offensively. Amazing vision for a 16 year old

Cue the broken record but, again, that PP is gawd awful. Head coach continues to march out the same 5 guys regardless. IMO, 3 of the 5 don't belong out there. The puck is moved in slow motion with perimeter passing.

Anyways. Solid effort all around by the kids. A point I wasn't expecting. With a little bit of coaching, a 5 on 3 goal might have gotten the result the kids deserved!

We don’t cycle the puck fast enough on PP1 to use the bumper play, but we’ve continued to do it, it’s way to readable for the defense and the goalie. Would rather see more floaters from the point with EP21 going for tips instead.

he looked stellar. Was really concerned about his play before he was sent down, but it appears to all be mental. Very happy for him, hopefully he can build off it. He’s got elite puck handling skills for a goalie too, very helpful on the powerplay
