Prospect Info: Peter Holland

[Tecumseh]

He's busy signing a petition?

#freeholland

Just read that petition. Of the reasons listed for why Bob Murray should be fired, it states the bust of Andrew Cogliano, trading away and re acquiring Beauchemin, and the unmanageable contract of Sheldon Souray (by the way that petition was made the day Souray signed that contract). I really wish AC didn't exist because it makes a good number of our fans look a bunch of idiots who don't think things over for more than two minutes. I don't even want to imagine what would be like if we had Pejorative Slurs like that running the Ducks. Sorry to go off-topic, I actually never saw that article until just now and had to say. I'll also say that everything on that website is the lowest possible form of journalism out there.

17! pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease

 

[Lord Flashheart]

Sadly, I don't think he'll get those 25 games at the rate of minutes he's been getting lately.

 

[JabbaJabba]

Holland is playing Carlyle's 4th line minutes, which means he isn't getting much time on ice. I'm expecting them to play him for like 24 games and then send him down for the rest of the season just so that they don't have to give away their 2nd round pick.

 

[GreatBear]

Holland is only going to get 25 games if the Leafs continue to have injuries at center. In the games that I have watched he tends to look a bit lost, particularly on defense. As a result he is playing on the fourth line, and Toronto does not use that line much.

Blacker has 6 points in 7 games with Norfolk so far. I'll laugh my ass of he turns out to be a NHLer while Holland becomes a career AHLer with the occasional call-up. Probably a stretch, but one never know with Murray and his scouting staff these days.

 

[quentez]

Yeah, he just scored. Good for him (and us, I guess).

That scouting staff is why I want that 3rd to be a 2nd. And why i dont want to see us deal Sens 1st.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

keep scoring some goals here and there pete then they can't send ya down

 

[bumperkisser]

weird. Holland is a +2, gets a goal and an assist, his line is clearly feeling it. not much ice time. although i guess they aren't exactly known for being offensive juggernauts lol

still. nice to see

That scouting staff drafted Holland with #15 overall, when Ryan O`Reilly was available

To be fair O'Reilly barely cracked the top 40 just for NA skaters according to CSS.

Holland kissing Canadian soil to 1G-1A. #freeholland

Really? The fact that he is our only 1st round "bust"(which is laughable to call him at this point but for the sake of the argument) with this staff is pretty great.

 

[Theridion]

Ok. So they arent perfect. But they come with targets.

Id put Noeson on their shoulders too, seeing that they wanted to draft him and also picked him up in the Ryan deal.

Remember the first... 15? Years of this franchise... and the amazing picks they made the top 3 rounds? And there were a lot of high picks too...

I love em cuz prospects and picks are salary cap Pejorative Slurant. 2 1st round picks... showing up in the nhl in a year or two, allow us to more easily afford to keep this team competetive.

 

[douglast5]

Because every prospect total pans out based on their position.

In the last 5 years Anaheim has been stellar at drafting, if your biggest prospect issue is Holland, you have done pretty well.

 

[Kalv]

I didn`t meant that very serious

No doubt our staff has done some tremendous job. I would prefer Ryan O`Riely over Holland and Saad over Rakell, maybe, but i wouldn`t call it as an ''issue''. I can`t think of a scouting staff in this league i`d take over ours.

 

[NEWFowler]

No scouting staff has a 100% success rate. It just doesn't happen. I think we're pretty fortunate to have who we have drafting for our team.

same draft is going to net us palmieri and vatanen, you wont hit on everything

 

[quentez]

Playing vs Kings now. One minor penalty after 2nd period, but he has more TOI than Kadri. Guess that's something...

how many games has he played now?

 

[Exit Dose]

how many games has he played now?

I think that this is his 10th.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Bit early to call either one a hit yet.

 

[Teemu Salami]

Is there a time table on Bolland's injury? If he's out for a couple more months i'd assume Holland plays the remaining 14 games. Unless they stop playing him at 24 games to piss us off that is. But he is playing good enough to hold a roster spot with their injuries I think.

No timetable. Bozak is out till early Jan, and I believe Bolland will be out for at least another month, maybe two.
