Squeak Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Owning our own affiliate would be nice, say, in Abbotsford. Don't know what that has to do with Mallet being sent down. He would've been sent down, regardless of the location of the AHL affiliate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonberries Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I just think it would be nice if we owned/controlled our own AHL affiliate so that players like Mallet, Polasek and Archibald could all play on the team at the same time and it didn't always have to be an 'either or' situation. The location thing is just a fantasy of mine, not really relevant to player development eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Anyone know how he is doing with the K-Wings so far? 0 points in 2 games Why the fuk is he with the K-Wings More minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canvoucer Vanuck Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Registered his first pro point, an assist. Has 1 point in 6 games so far, hopefully he's getting big minutes down there to develop his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 After a slow start from Mallet, going pointless in his first 5 games, he has 3 points in his last 5 games (including 2 goals). Looks like he's starting to come alive. This might be just what he needs for his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god he's getting some points, I had high hopes for this kid and to see him take so long to get a point kinda diminished my hopes for him.

Smashian Kassian Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 That's great to hear, hopefully he keeps this goiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canvoucer Vanuck Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 He's +4 in his last 5 too, so it seems good things are happening when he's out there. 4 shots last night too, so hopefully this means the start of bigger things - and more opportunities - for him. Good to see his last 5 games are starting to look much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Mallet matches Gaunces 4 point night with a 4 point night of his own. He had 1 goal and 3 assists in a 7-2 win. Looks like he's picking it up now. He's slowly creeping towards becoming a point per game player with 8 points in 13 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Heyman Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Great for Mallet! How are his PIM's down there? Is he fighting more or has he been giving his hands a rest from demolishing Carter Bancks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCanuck Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I want Burrows to mentor this guy. Good thing Burr is signed for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canvoucer Vanuck Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Nice to see him putting up points. Great for his confidence. Again, his shooting has gone up, and that might be even more encouraging than his point totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Hopefully he can continue this then step into the AHL on the 3rd line when the season starts and he will have his condidence, and maybe he can get some points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Great for Mallet! How are his PIM's down there? Is he fighting more or has he been giving his hands a rest from demolishing Carter Bancks? Only 2 penalty minutes believe it or not. Looks like he's focusing on his play rather than dropping the gloves. We already know he's capable of that anyways.

SamJamIam Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Mallet matches Gaunces 4 point night with a 4 point night of his own. He had 1 goal and 3 assists in a 7-2 win. Looks like he's picking it up now. He's slowly creeping towards becoming a point per game player with 8 points in 13 games. That's great to hear. He really had offensive upside in the Q. 5 goal games are a big deal in the Q and don't just happen by accident. Mackinnon did it as well but Crosby couldn't (both Mallet and Crosby played for the Oceanic). His 2nd year QMJHL numbers look quite similar to what MacKinnon is on pace for as well. MacKinnon will not have played quite as many games but then Mallet spent a lot of time in the box because he could fight too. Definitely a "flashes of brilliance" kind of guy. Easily worth a 2nd pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe you are comparing Mackinnon, a possible number 1 pick, with Mallet, an ECHL'er who was pointless in the AHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
