Go Habs Go
when watching his games keep an eye out his teammate Tyler Dunbar, who i've heard is highly rated for the '22 draft, he's committed to North Dakota in '22-'23.

Muskegon playing their first game of the season. Pitlick starts at 3LW:
I'm almost positive he committed and signed his letter of intent last year, I guess I must be wrong about that.I thought he already signed his NLI, but then again I was certain he was slated to go to Minnesota this year, i wonder if there was an issue with his grades. Next year's incoming Freshman forward class for Minnesota is massive, going to be interesting to see what kind of role he has and how much ice time he gets
He is a 2002 and got picked in 2019, did i miss something here?
For some reason, HockeyDB got him as a 2002 but he is born in 2001. EliteProspects has the right DOB.
Pride on Ice Profile: Rhett Pitlick - University of Minnesota Athletics
A little profile video on Pitlick, who will finally be making his debut with the Gophers this season. He's not on the best trajectory to make it with the Habs someday but with his plus plus skating I haven't 100% counted him out either. I'll catch a game or two during the season for sure. On an unrelated note, he sorta looks like a young Sigourney Weaver in Alien now, which got a chuckle out of me
I don't expect he'll be playing a lot, early on at least. You never know I guess, he's an older freshman and all.yea that plus plus speed and acceleration certainly could get him some NHL games one day but I have not been too impressed with him, for someone with that speed I wish he would move his feet more.
He's going to be in tough to get TOI as Minnesota should be right there with Michigan as the top 2 teams in the Big 10 I would think. They are bringing back one of the best goalies in the NCAA so that alone should help. Plus their coach was Poehling's former coach at SCSU, though I don't know if he's still going to after his son died this summer, a teammate of Jack Smith's at HS and the USHL.
