I think expectations for a guy who played in a very sub standard league compared to the AHL or the NHL are WAY over the top.
It would be great if he is THAT guy, but holy cow i think things need to be tempered a wee bit when it comes to what he can do in his first year of pro hockey in a completely different country/system/competition compared to anything he has experienced thus far.

Treliving himself tried to temper expectations when he first signed. I get that voters might think Pribyl has a higher upside (although still not sure what that is based upon), but I can't see how Pribyl could be seen to be closer to the NHL now.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
