Confirmed with Link: Tim Erixon traded to Chicago for Jeremy Morin
- Thread starter CBJ Tiffin
- Start date
he looks pretty good. not great but pretty good. his first couple games here he had a pretty big impact, then he got promoted to the first line and wasn't making as much of an impact. last game he ended up on the 4th line and may have only played one shift in the third period. Overall, I am excited to see what he can do. He seems to have very good offensive instincts and a good shot, but he has yet to really produce here. He will most likely settle on our 2nd or, more likely, our 3rd line with 2nd pp time.

Morin is the equal to Skille and basically the equal to Erixon. Shows some flashes, but at the end of the day, nothing special. Middle 6 on a good day.

Which is really depressing, considering that I thought he'd come in to Columbus with an optimistic attitude... a fresh start. and take it by storm. disappointed thus far.

Why would those things lead to performance or numbers? I'm sure he is optimistic. He did get a fresh start. He's just not doing all that well despite fairly good opportunities yet. Of course you're disappointed - you thought being thrust into a new situation with a new attitude would result in instant success. You set yourself up for it.
He seems to have yet to find a good fit. I'm not sure what his ceiling is, but considering he was brought in to replace a guy who couldn't get on the ice, him playing in and of itself is a bit of a successful payoff. Hopefully he produces soon. I agree with the other poster - he reminds me mostly of Skille with a lesser shot.
Not that the end result will be much different in terms of scoring (I have no idea yet), but Skille and Morin are very different players. Morin has better stickhandling, vision and passing, the sort of things that make players around him better. Skille on the other hand.. If he isn't the sniper on his line then he's dragging it down.

Same could be said for several forwards on this team. Hence the team's terrible goal differential.

he's probably a 3rd scoring line player at best...but yeah...i figured he'd do more...we'll see if he gets it going or if he's sent away again...
Definitely true for a few guys. Though I'm not even sure I'd say that Calvert, Atkinson, Skille, any of our other depth guys are actually playing well even. Just all around ineffectual.

Morin is doing close to nothing.... I'm an admitted Erixon apologist.... It is funny watching the current glut of CBJ defenseman fumble the puck in our end and struggle to handle the puck..... lol
Nice move John, the guy must have dated your daughter...

Considering how a Chicago fan has said Erixon has done **** all there, I'm sure he wouldn't be doing **** all here either.
