That guy was hoarding TP before it became trendy in the pandemic.

I think he gets 9 games and then back to Brandon.
The following season the 9 game rule doesn’t applyToo soon for that. Perhaps following season 2022-23.

I cant get over how sturdy he was when taking hits from men in the AHL at the beginning of last season (going by the shifts and clips montage). he was listed below 160lbs at the draft I believe and he doesn't get knocked over easy.
Some say that we draft too safe but I personally love the players that look like sure fire bottom six guys and at 18 years old the sky is always the limit. I personally prefer those selections to picks like Jarventie who either make it as a top 6 goal scoring threat in the show or end up overseas.
There was a noticeable improvement in his strength and ability to handle the physicality of the AHL from the start of the season to the end of the season. In the Shifts & Clips series I created you can see this change when his jersey number changes from 9 to 14. You can see this at the 38 minute mark of the video. When he rejoined the roster and is wearing number 14, he looked very strong on his skates and in puck battles. The other thing that was impressive was his ability to make intelligent and dangerous passes when pressured. There are plenty of examples where an opposition player pins him against the boards and he is still able to keep control of the puck, assess the ice for potential passes and create enough space to create a clean pass to an open team mate. He also does an excellent job of assessing the ice prior to being pinned so he is able to anticipate where the pressure is coming from, evaluate where his team mates are on the ice, determine an optimal pass to facilitate continued possession or a scoring chance, brace for contact and then execute the pass.I cant get over how sturdy he was when taking hits from men in the AHL at the beginning of last season (going by the shifts and clips montage). he was listed below 160lbs at the draft I believe and he doesn't get knocked over easy.

Mike Peca as a comparison from Chummy. Gotta like it!
Fisher seems to be a favorite comparable to many players. Most are bad.They mentioned Fisher as a comparison on the radio today and I just don't see it...
No I dont either, Fisher was a much bigger, stronger person and a better skater. Greig seems more crafty, dynamic and dare I say it dirtier?... Mike Peca honestly seems like the best comparable I can think of.They mentioned Fisher as a comparison on the radio today and I just don't see it...

While he was very tough and hard to play against, Peca also played at around 5’11 180 so I agree size wise that comparison is much more realistic. I know some on here are too young to have seen a prime Mike Peca but holy shit if Ridly Greig can become a similar player, adding him to Norris and Pinto, the Sens will be stacked at center with players who are very hard to play against.
Great post....You cant just collect top 6 skill at the draft,you need to draft all sorts ...Which is why I really think we drafted a guy like Boucher at 10,as most who see him see a for sure nhl player...Even if only a bottom 6 grinder,need these guys tooI cant get over how sturdy he was when taking hits from men in the AHL at the beginning of last season (going by the shifts and clips montage). he was listed below 160lbs at the draft I believe and he doesn't get knocked over easy.

Like that style of player,JGP is a pip squeak but thinks and plays like he is the size of Chara...If Greig is like this then we have a for sure player hereFisher seems to be a favorite comparable to many players. Most are bad.
Donavan: “He played super hard, so he just reminds me of Mike Peca. You don’t expect that at his size, but he gets in your face and is dirty.” Better...

Peca was a freaking stud prior to Tucker targeting his knee. If Greig becomes a similar player we are laughing. Loved him in Buffalo.
