For those interested, Cole Reschny has put up 24 points in the last 10 games, 11 in the last four and was named WHL player of the week this past week.
The Royals made a couple of big trades at the deadline and picked up Kenta Isogai and Brandon Lisowski, which has given the forward lines some needed depth. Feels like both the chemistry Reschny has with Isogai and the added depth has sparked him quite a bit. He has a little more freedom to finish with match-up depth (previously, the top defenders would be stapled to him) and Isogai drawing attention.
I think the Royals have a good chance at going deep in this year's playoffs with these moves and the way the team (and Reschny) has been playing. Unfortunately, that could mean he'll likely start climbing back up the first round projections.
He really is a special player. Tons of energy, never quit motor and a lot of skill. I really want the Flames to draft him.
