PureQuickness Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 I think McDonough was friends with Rathbone, if I recall. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Dhaliwal falling to the sunk cost fallacy. He wasn't that great in Abbotsford. Will be 25 in November. At this point his ceiling is probably an AHL top six forward. Maybe a 4th line NHL guy if he can learn to handle the grindier style. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekker Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) Huh? Why, I thought he was one of the better D prospects. Edit. Got my Mc's mixed up. Edited June 27 by Rekker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck73_3 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Like him as a depth option but a tweener at best in all reality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 I thought he looked okay in preseason, has a wicked shot. Admittedly don't watch AHL, so maybe he's just not that good outside of his shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Long Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I thought he had some qualities that were great, but he definitely was still raw as a player. Had some really solid tools though. Good finisher, needed better skating and creativity and off puck movement though. Has a chance at being an NHL player but is still a couple years away if development goes well.

NorthWestNuck Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Funny, I thought he looked alright in his couple games when called up, but just didn’t seem to have the extra gear to separate himself from the other forwards on the team in the AHL. Good luck wherever he ends up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 When everyone was panicking tonsign him, I seem to recall saying that there was a BIG jump from college to the NHL and that I didn't think he had to foot speed to make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His numbers in the AHL don't look like he would be anywhere near the top 6 even in that league. Haven't watched much of Abbotsford but I remember this guy looking like he had a great shot.. surprised to see just how many other players out scored him.. BY A LOT.

At 24, turning 25 though, I could see him improving a bit--just not a lot and likely not enough to make the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
