At least. The best thing for him, IMO, to say he has nothing to learn in the AHL is just wrong. The kid is barely into his twenties - hopefully he will get his confidence back and should not be rushed back. Richardson should challenge him to come back in next season's training camp and make the team with his play, not just with his potential.Should have happened about 3 weeks ago
Someone said Richardson has been turning chicken shit into chicken salad. Unfortunately he also seems able to turn top sirloin into chicken salad.At this point getting away from Richardson is a blessing for kid
Kid needs to figure his shit out. The coaching staff has tried everything to get him started. He even played with Bedard for a bit and was garbage.
He played like 3 games with Bedard and was fine. LuRich didn't like that in the 3rd game he got a shot blocked and demoted him to the 4th line.Kid needs to figure his shit out. The coaching staff has tried everything to get him started. He even played with Bedard for a bit and was garbage.
He was good with Bedard except for that Toronto game where they got wrecked. By far his best game of the season was on Bedard's wing against ColoradoKid needs to figure his shit out. The coaching staff has tried everything to get him started. He even played with Bedard for a bit and was garbage.

Imagine grouping a stud like Nazar with a bum like ReichelHopefully he can bounce back next year but I think this is a good lesson for KD that -- and I know we've had some injuries -- you can't leave the kids out on an island. Fine enough for a singular talent like Bedard, but the Reichels and Nazars of the world are going to need some support.
Bedard's development is far too important to saddle him with a guy with all the same weaknesses as the teenage Bedard and who can't produce offense at an NHL level at the moment just for the sake of that guy's own development. Better to give him Reichel + 2 or 3 years (Kurashev) versus a guy who we're not sure will be in the NHL or the DEL in 3 years.Personally, I think he and Bedard should have been glued together once Hall and Athanasiou went down.
Most players will be “fine” along side Bedard. Kurashev (an average 3rd liner) and Foligno (a good 4th liner) are doing “fine” there right now.He played like 3 games with Bedard and was fine. LuRich didn't like that in the 3rd game he got a shot blocked and demoted him to the 4th line.
Yeah ...... right.Reichel is definitely to blame but so was the deployment. He wasn’t put in a position to succeed and guys like Raddysh were stapled to PP1 for weeks without doing jack f***ing shit.
It’s not one or the other. It’s both.

Do PP1 vs PP2107.3 powerplay minutes for Raddysh compared to 96.7 powerplay minutes for Reichel.
I get the push Reichel should of gotten more time.. but did you want Reichel in the net front role on a powerplay ever?Do PP1 vs PP2
