Ferraro
Personally I wouldn't say Ferraro has high end speed. He has a great motor and above average/good speed IMO.

I will never understand Ryan Merkley. Has all the talent in the world but here is his effort late in the 3rd period on what ended up being the game winning goal last night....
It's not a good look but based on how the rest of his teammates barely moved, I'm gonna guess that it was a long PK shift and they're all dead tired.

The one thing it does highlight is that he's very likely not even close to being physically ready for the NHL but we knew that already and if he's skilled enough to be here, I would hope coaching shelters him until he is better conditioned.Yeah without context its harder to comment, however I agree with your observation.
Merkley is getting hate, look at 22. He just stands next to his goalie, and slowly takes a knee in the most feeble of attempts to stop the pass. The forwards up high a barely moving as well, even the one that is moving is just gliding back towards the goal. Either Merkley's team is just that terrible, or yeah looks like it was a long PK shift.
It sure "looks" bad though.

Any player at any level gets knocked off the puck.The one thing it does highlight is that he's very likely not even close to being physically ready for the NHL but we knew that already and if he's skilled enough to be here, I would hope coaching shelters him until he is better conditioned.
Of course they do, I'm just saying he needs better conditioning long term.Any player at any level gets knocked off the puck.
Blichfeld scored a hatty and had an assist in a 10-2 stomping tonight. I'm obviously not a scout or anything, but I would put money on Joachim being a solid NHL player; he and Glass just dominate the ice together. No idea how he was drafted in the 7th round...
Might be a good thing long term -- let's hope it motivates the little f8&^er to play some defense.Merkley is the only Canadian 1st rounder from the last draft who wasn't invited. The other 9 Canadian first rounders were all invited
