Eichel: He is as advertised, he can skate so fast and handle the puck so well, the scrub invite players were slowing him down, on 2 on 0s. He is so accurate with his wrist shot he can hit any opening he wants with ease, rarely misses the net. Man among boys.
Reinhart: His skating has improved, and he looks bigger. He's the smartest guy out there leading off all the drills. His puck handling is fantastic, players were often times passing right into his skates, and he would calmly kick it up to his blade. He is a good one, no doubt about it.
Baptiste/Bailey/Fasching: You can tell these guys got a lot better since last year. There all bigger, faster, and skate really well. These guys aren't too far off from the NHL
Florentino: He seems to be under the radar here, but I think he is a legit D prospect for us. Skates really well, He's big, and is very calm with the puck.
These are the guys I really focused on, I like what I'm seeing
Thanks, I don't know much about him other than the fact that he had a great record in WHL last year and made it to memorial cup and he's friends with Bylsma. I just assumed he was going to be our AHL coach but I like him up here too.

Agreed. I like the fact that no one is really paying attention to Rinehart because i think thats exactly what will help him flourish.
He's gonna be a good one too, but he's being overshadowed by Eich and O'Reilley news.

I wasn't really focusing on McCabe, but Rodrigues was very impressive to me. You could tell that he spent a few years at BU. He's smaller than the guys i mentioned, but he's a really good skater, and good with the puck. Him and Eichel started running drill together eventually. Rodrigues was one of the few that could actually keep up with Eichel. I would put him somewhat close to Baptiste/Bailey/Fasching in our system.
