We have all the coaches fired and the D blamed for all 4 goals. A rempaging manifesto that burns brightly with nonsense. ... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimlach Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) JJP is listed at 6’ and 189 pounds. He looks much more stout this year and when he is moving he can be a load. Let’s look at his development. At 18-19 he plays a full year in Rochester. Impresses, grows his game, and makes a splash in the playoffs At 19-20 he could have spent more time in the AHL. If he was with the Avs, or Tampa, he may have started the year in the minors. On a weaker team like Buffalo he was able to play in the NHL with youngsters Quinn and Cozens. He needed protected minutes at times but he did a nice job overall. Then he played well in the Worlds. This season at 20-21 he looks to be blossoming. Changes in his physical strength are helping him. Opportunity to play with better veteran players is helping him. Last years experience is helping him. JJP is a rare player that looks to be developing quickly. Now look at Savoie at 19 years and 5’9” and 179. He needs a year in Rochester like JJP had, and I didn’t need to see 4 minutes of NHL play to figure that out. Savoie also has a pretty stout lower body and a frame that can carry more weight. He just needs time, strength and conditioning, and the confidence you get from succeeding in the AHL, a tough and physical league Edited November 12, 2023 by Pimlach 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) JJP's ceiling is Kucherov Small chance he gets there but it's possible. He's good. FWIW I said the same thing about Olofsson lol Edited November 12, 2023 by Randall Flagg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcal Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 JJP is dreamy. My confidence in him is growing by the game. He is still only a fraction of what he's going to become. I'm most excited about him right now than anyone in the organization. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I disagree with “a fraction” … I’m right there with you. 👍🏼 Although on further reflection .. 2/3 is a fraction 😂 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
