higgyfan Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Yep, definitely looking pokey there. Like I said though, he may get back some of his speed as his legs get stronger and limbered up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Yeah lack of acceleration there. Probable that his skating will be improved as time goes by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he can score from that far out is going to generate a lot of scoring chances for our team on the rush. I think OJ already has an NHL offence. Looking forward to seeing him soon.

bullishfor2012 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think it's only a matter of time before Oli shows that he is ready for the NHL. Like many have said, he's coming back from some tough injuries, so it's probable that he just needs a little more time to be the player that he was expected to be when drafted. It's going to be well worth the wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlastPast Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Olli panning out sooner than later would be such a &^@#ing boon for this team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid has looked very good since he came back from injury. He is going to push to make the team out of camp next year. As is Raftery. Lind maybe as well. Our prospect depth makes our cap situation so much more manageable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever contracts in the way need to outplay the youth and not get waived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 We're pretty set up in 2 more seasons when we're gonna have a lot of guys knocking on the door. Might have one or two next young guys next season but the season after we might see Hog, Pod, Rathbone, Juolevi, Lind and Madden(later in the year) compete for spots/get good looks. Most of our prospects are playing pro/college and it really fits where we are as an organization right now. That 2021 draft Luke Hughes is available too. We might need a top 10 pick to nab him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade Stretcher at the TDL, call up Rafferty, OJ can replace Rafferty as the Comets #1D and 1st call up option. Next year OJ can be first injury call up again to start, and eventually replace Benn at the TDL. The one and only Hannibal, even Liam Neeson couldn't do better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to go nuts with the expectations just yet, but it's really great to see how much his game is improving. With the way people have been crapping on Juolevi, it's nice to see him taking steps to prove the trolls that weren't willing to take his injury issues and the jump to the AHL into consideration when gauging him wrong. And most importantly, his +/- is even. I know we joke, but that's a pretty far stretch from where it was just a couple weeks ago. It's almost as though he just needed time to develop or something 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
