Dube has an edge on Phillips curently based on how the two fared in an NHL camp and it wouldn't shock me to see Dube snag a spot on the club next season as he has some performances that were on Jankowski's level. Just needs to cook another season or two. Philips has skill in spades but needs to think the game quicker than other players at the pro level like Gaudreau to take the next step. In camp he was trying to do junior things against pros and that won't fly. Needs to adjust his game after he graduates to the next level.

Phillips looks like he might put up a pretty crazy point total for the year.
He's smaller than Gaudreau though, so I'm not sure he'll ever be able to translate his game to a much heavier pro game.

will be interesting to see how Phillips will do at the pro level. I guess they'll sign him at some point and he'll be in Stockton next season ... no idea whether his game will translate. There's room for small players in the NHL today, but he's not just small, he's tiny.
Dube on the other hand I have no doubt he'll be a solid NHLer in two years or so. Just a smart and reliable player and a heck of a pick ... Tkachuk + Parsons + Dube + Fox was just an unreal haul last year.

Matty Hockey.
Though obviously the right decision was made, Dube could've been a contributor on the team this year IMO. That kid has NHL game.

He might have been given the 9 games, but I think he was a victim of the numbers game.

Oh, sure, I agree, and the nine games would have been a reward for a great camp, nothing more. They wouldn't have kept him past that anyway.

Looks like he attempted to quote something, presumably from an article. It must be the same as including a link, no?

Phillips should probably get with some good trainers in the off season and prepare himself. I doubt he makes the NHL unless he can increase his muscle mass. I recall somewhere Martin St Louis said he had to reinvent himself so that he could find ways to be an impact during situations where he wasn't scoring goals.

That's pretty much how I feel after watching prospects develop for the last decade. Dube and Phillips are lighting it up.......in their draft +2 seasons. In reality, they're closer to doing the minimum to keep their NHL dreams alive than they are to being thriving prospects.

Dube's training camp did a lot more than the minimum. Watch him at the WJCs this year.

Not quite like Wahl, Boyd, and Reinhart. Tough to keep it up for the whole season but if he does then he's in a different league from those guys best years in the WHL.
Wahl: GP: 72 G: 30 A: 66 P: 96
Boyd: GP: 64 G: 48 A: 42 P: 90
Reinhart GP: 61 G: 28 A: 50 P: 78
Phillips* GP:72 G: 65 A: 108 P: 172
*Pro-rated

I think Dube might make the team next year. Phillips surely in the AHL - hopefully his game will translate.

You forgot to mention Adam Ruzicka who has 8 goals and 15 points in 10 games. Was leading OHL in goals. 6'4 and 18 years old.

Hoping Phillips will grow a few inches yet... he’s still a kid. Anyone know how tall his parents are?
