I have faith in Mittelstadt as a prospect, it hasn't been shaken. This just illustrates how laughable it was the Botterill has Mittelstadt (or Mittelstadt/Berglund) penciled in as the 2C. Laughable. Expand He's not NHL ready. A year in the minors would have helped him like a year in junior helped Reinhart. 10 goals this year shows he's not ready to be an NHL scorer. 11 assists show that he's not ready to be a playmaker. I don't think it's a given he makes a leap next season. 1 Quote

Pimlach Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 Listening on the radio. Terrible game. I predicted a bad showing without Eichel, not surprised. Quote
dudacek Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 Good try tonight but we are making Ben Bishop look eight feet tall. Who predicted Sam Reinhart would allow Tage to miss several brilliant chances? Well done. Sam needs to stop deferring to Jack and try to take control more often. Quote

Look at the line up he was with. Now add Skinner, Dahlin, Montour and him. You add add add add. Don’t add subtract add subtract. 1 1 Quote

I'm just hoping this is JB's way of deciding what to do with him after the season. Expand Rochester looks like a great AHL team but we've known all along they aren't exactly rife with legit-NHL prospects busting down the door to come up. Asplund, Olofsson, Pliut, and Borgen to me are the guys with legit shots. 2 Quote
Claude Balls Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 And now we get to watch the Cleveland Browns blow past the Bills in their rebuild after trading for Beckham. That team is loaded on offense. 2 Quote

Expand They have like 4 legit NHL players on the team. I don't think firing the guy who built the team and the guy who runs it would be that bad of a thing. 1 Quote

Beer Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 JB needs more time. He’s building through the farm. pH however can’t motivate these guys to play 60 minutes. pH should be gone. 1 Quote

Beer Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 None of our guys go to the front of the net and camp out. I’m not surprised Bishop is pitching another shutout. No one is in front of him screening shots and banging in rebounds. They need to watch some video of Thomas Vanek. 1 Quote

Expand No one on this team has a killer instinct. Maybe Skinner who's ultra skilled but small. Tonight its more of the same. The coaching staff doesn't seem to have an answer. We'll most likely get shut out again. Its pretty much unwatchable. They've improved on last year but that was a given wasn't it. Meh. Quote

As a prospect he was a full step lower than Sam. I have not seen improvement in his game this season. AHL would have helped his confidence. Edited March 13, 2019 by Pimlach Quote
