I feel bad for the guy practicing Ovies spot on PP2.
Sprong. Yea. He had a bad day
I feel bad for the guy practicing Ovies spot on PP2.
I’m surprised how much love he’s getting. He doesn’t make mistakes or anything but his offence and speed seems limited.
I guess I’ll have to pay more attention.
If Sprong is out why not just double-shift two of the kids instead of rushing Oshie and Dowd back? The season is a marathon not a sprint etc.
I agree that he’s reliable. I just see him as a good 4C at this moment, so I’m surprised he’s on the PP.Its just a guess but he is positionally sound, makes the right decisions and doesn't turn the puck over in the defensive and neutral zones. The last 2 games he has played nearly 14mins. A tie game in regulation and a game with 1 3rd period goal and a en goal. Laviolette must trust him on goals against. He's not putting up points. Has to be something else.
I also think he is probably faster than he looks. His size will give that impression
Good news on the injury front. Very interested to see the AJF-McMichael-Oshie line, assuming that's what they go with tomorrow night.
Edit: Eller is still in COVID protocol.
Note: Sprong returned to practice. Why do we assume that either Oshie or Dowd would be rushed back if they are playing?
He’s still pretty raw I think. Big guys take a while to get it together. Ive liked his hands.I’m surprised how much love he’s getting. He doesn’t make mistakes or anything but his offence and speed seems limited.

He’s been awesome and he deserves to play with Backstrom and Oshie when they return, if Mantha is still out. I think a major reason his TOI is lower than it should be is his extremely low FO%. He would fit well next to 19 and 77 and that would be less of a concern.Pulled this from the CMM prospect thread. Someone smarter than me can interpret, but seems like some pretty high praise.

being where he is now, from he was drafted …. Seems ahead of schedule. So that’s good.

The problem with comparing him to DSP is DSP scored the same number of goals in the playoffs as he did in the regular season (7) even though he played 3x the number of RS games to playoff games (75 and 24). If we double the number of goals that Hags will score in the playoffs this year as he has in the regular season he’ll score *checks notes* zero goals.Early season throwaway optimistic handful-of-wasabi-peas-in-your-mouth hot take:
Carl Hagelin 2021-22 will become DSP 2017-18.
Someone remind me what the deal is with AJF and waivers. I think since we claimed him off waivers we can assign him to Hershey without him having to pass through waivers again if he plays less than a certain number of games? Maybe 10 games? I ask because there’s no chance the organization will risk losing him for nothing on waivers given how well he’s played so we may see him sent down sooner than the others — who are mostly if not all still waiver-exempt — regardless of how well he’s playing.
@Hivemind @Langway think you guys are normally up to speed on this kind of stuff. Normally I’d do the research myself but this whiskey sour isn’t going to drink itself.
I’ve got one for you my man. Have no fear.The problem with comparing him to DSP is DSP scored the same number of goals in the playoffs as he did in the regular season (7) even though he played 3x the number of RS games to playoff games (75 and 24).

If we win the Cup and Hags scores a bunch of important goals I’ll buy a Hagelin jersey and dedicate my HF profile and picture to Hagelin the GOAT.
After the 30th day or 10th game they would have to expose him to waivers typically. If it was an emergency recall (and I'm too lazy to find out if it was an emergency recall or a standard recall) they can effectively double that time, by converting it from an emergency recall to a standard recall as the 10 game/30day limit expires for the emergency recall.
Not sure who's comparing Hagelin to DSP in the playoffs, but there couldn't be a more off-base comparison. Hagelin has been a playoff ghost for five seasons at this point. He has an identical 0G, 1A statline in each of the three post-seasons he's played for the Capitals. You could add up all his playoff goals from 2016-17 onwards and he'd still have fewer goals that DSP had in that single post-season run.The problem with comparing him to DSP is DSP scored the same number of goals in the playoffs as he did in the regular season (7) even though he played 3x the number of RS games to playoff games (75 and 24).

He will be at 8 games after this weekend.10 games or 30 days right?
It doesn’t reset. The 10 games/30 days continues to accumulate until the player is exposed to waivers again.He will be at 8 games after this weekend.
If Oshbabe and Dowd are back they will need to make 2 roster spots. The thing that I dont know is how long a player sent back before waivers are required has to be in the AHL before that 10 game limit is reset?
