Agreed, I didn't mean to get ahead of myself. I was just caught off guard as Ferland had a tough development year last season (plus we had all those questions regarding his committment)... it was nice to see a guy today that potentially could be a NHL player down the line. Still will need him to work on his skating but it looks vastly improved versus what he was like in the dub and previous prospect camps.
Monahan is such a smart player - the puck follows him around. I'm usually against keeping kids with the big team at 18 (especially as you lose a year of that ELC) but Monahan is making a case. Will be interesting to see what Feaster and co. do after the 9 game mark.
