What risk, injury wise is Hagens taking on an ATO.
Its not a PTO its an ATO.
Hagens is more a talented and a better player right now than Alex Steeves.
Makes sense…couple of games and then bring him up….
Smart move by Hagens. Play well down in Providence and he will be playing with Boston soon.
Lysell & Hagens in the AHL. BEST TEAM IN HOCKEY… lmao
ATO rejects
Big deal. Another over rated prospect!
He was talking about Fraser Minten not hagens!! As in Marco sturm at practice !! You can do better than that
Happy with this. Let him cook!!!!
Just look at what the Capitals did 2years in a row… they brought up Ryan Leonard who was IMMEDIATELY impactful, and is having a solid season for them. Then they bring up Hutson and he scores in his first game. Looking good in his first few games.
It’s time to be one of those franchises. You have a high profile piece. Time to use him!!
the kid is overrated not going to be that good or as what you expect if anything will take a bit of time for him to be average
The Marco quote that was played was about Fraser Minten.. not Hagens. Hehe. Listened to the interview yesterday.
Let the kid play against top AHL pros. There's a big jump from College hockey because a majority of college players never get drafted. Playing it safe and seeing what the kid has against men will show what he's got.
