Lets go!

 

[Phion Keneuf]

I still have no idea how this guy didn’t get drafted.

Really like the fact that we’re keeping him around. Has some solid potential

 

[Guided by Veseys]

Yes! This guy is awesome. Lit it up for the Marlies and didn’t look a bit out of place as a late edition rookie. Great signing.

 

[SprDaVE]

He was great with the Marlies. He needs to keep working on his skating which is a pretty big weakness in his game but he always had very good skill in Junior. He has a great shot.

 

[crump]

SDA’s buddy from the Pete’s. Did well in a short stint with the Marlies. I like it.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

I thought they would do this mid-season, but he was our best AHL contract by far. Not surprising.

 

[justloveleafs]

LOL, who is this guy.

 

[CupcakeSprinkles]

Kid is a stud. One of our most underrated prospects.

 

[Magic Man]

Another free prospect. This one's a good one.

 

[stickty111]

Very well deserved. Was terrific down the stretch. Skating needs improvement.

[Carltons Cup]

LOL, who is this guy.

You'll have to Googlev him

 

[BTP]

Never heard of the guy, but welcome to Leaf nation

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

Anderson that low? Not understanding that...

 

[A1LeafNation]

Anderson that low? Not understanding that...

Hyman was that low at one point. Hard working is a skill that's overlooked on these things.

 

[namttebih]

Awesome. He was a killer in Guelph.

Can this please be our diamond in the rough?

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

Hyman was that low at one point. Hard working is a skill that's overlooked on these things.

Yeah... he's not supremely skilled. But gimme Andersons littering the bottom 6 over Mik and Engvall all day.

 

[TimeZone]

His combination of size and skill always stood out whenever I watched the Marlies last season. Definitely raw, but definite NHL potential....whether he reaches it is another story.

 

[Menzinger]

An under the radar guy, but very interesting to follow. Hoping he keeps taking those next steps in development

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

Great addition!

 

[Leviathan899]

If he can figure out his skating and start playing with a bit more pace, using his size and skill to create time and space, he could be a good one. Could see him getting 10 games or so with the big club this year at points. One of the more skilled goal scoring prospects in the system, just lacks an all around game and his skating is a big part of that imo.

 

[Stephen]

Had to Gogolev who that was.

Had to Gogolev who that was.

 

[Leafsfan74]

Fast, quick acceleration, average size, seems to like to score.

I just hope he's competitive.

Oddly, the responses from others on here is that he isn't a good skater. When I searched out a scouting report, it suggested the opposite.
