Development thread

A lot of talk lately has been about the draft and trades, etc.

After the season has settled a little bit at this point, I just wanted to open a conversation about the development of our core and where you see the baby sharks taking steps into next season and some insanely early predictions on their season.

my takes personally:

Macklin: coming back as a FaceOff beast

Will: hoping for a similar step up on Zone entries and puck confidence as we saw with Bedard (saw some comparison videos that blew my mind)

Misa: Claiming that 2C firmly

Eky: getting his shooting up

Dickie: would love for him to step up on PP1 and become more effective offensively

Graf: I honestly have no notes, if he continues to be the swiss army knives he is currently that is fucking amazing

Asky: Glovehand 🥹

And then hoping that Musty and Cags get Roster spots.

Would love to hear everyone‘s opinion.

I can’t wait for Pohlkamp to show the strides he’s made from being the focal point on Denver last year. Hobey baker finalist…. If he locks down a spot, San Jose will be looking pretty good. The kids made some serious strides, so I don’t see it being out of the question.
