I love the optimism around here. He will be a decent player one day. Didn't you guys see him get squeezed out all over the ice tonight? If his body can catch up we'll have a good one.

I haven't seen him since he was here. I am expecting him to grow and trust that his brother says he's better than he is. The lineage is strong and he is fast and has the hands to go with it. I think his time in Roch was no doubt given with a directive much like Sam was. Don't worry about goals or points worry about this... get to the gym etc. I think Nylander is going to provide a far bigger impact than Sam. Just my thoughts.

Probably Rochester again? His bro is probably his closest comparable, and played two full post-draft seasons before joining the NHL. Alex might be a little behind physically, too. Willy's kinda jacked

Exactly.  Why rush the kid?

I'm excited to watch Sweden in the World Juniors to see what we have in Nylander and Asplund. Success there is not always indicative of NHL success, but, the confidence gained can be huge.

I haven't seen Nylander play other than highlight clips. A full year in the AHL and work in the gym will get him closer. He'll be a bubble guy at camp next year.
