I still think Guhle gets pulled out of position quite a bit. I've seen this in every game. He's gotta work on it.

Evans and Pezzetta are the only vets up front that I like.
Watching because of the kids.
I also always appreciate Harvey-Pinard...honest and hard working

I'm going to disagree on that one. He has looked good enough to make a good bunch of us excited about the future with him, but his play in a couple exhibition games is not forcing any hands. Being better than the 12th forward is not making the team for a freshly drafted player.... it makes no sense. There is lots for him to learn in the OHL still. Let him do it.
It would be more than a couple of games, it would be the entire preseason if he forced hands. He just gives me O'Reilly vibes (plays well beyond his years) and I could see him slotting as a 3C/W. If he goes back to the OHL to develop offensive game, also fine. I'm ambivalent either way. I trust this management group to make the appropriate decision.

Maybe offensively, but his defensive positioning, anticipation and reads need a lot of work.

Don’t agree there. Just the play before he anticipated the situation well and was first on the puck. His comprehension and reads are good most of the times. He will be out of position here and there, but that will only be corrected once he gets more experience.
