Carl Hagelin
 

Anyone know anything about this kid. He honestly wasn't any were on my radar and I know very little about him. His numbers look nice in College, but that and the HF write up on him are all I got. I have an extra reserve spot on one of my Keeper teams. I could stash him on there for a year or 2. It cost's me money to make pickups so if he isn't capable of ever being a second liner I'm not really interested.

Thanks if anyone knows him even!!!

He'll be a bottom-6 player, that's all. He might get a chance in the top-6 given Dubinsky and Callahan's form recently, but I can't see it lasting. Pleased he's got the call though, been playing very well for the CT Whale this season and has a great head on his shoulders.

Thanks ranger, gotta check anyone the pool is sickly deep....

Well, he has his 3rd point in his 3rd game against my Pens tonight. I didn't see the game, but i was listening to it, and apparently he had a few scoring chances ontop of having an assist. The guy has something the Rangers are lacking, SERIOUS speed. Effort + Speed = Opportunity. I think he's worth a pickup in deeper leagues.

1st game vs Was: 1 shot, 1 A.
2nd game vs Phi: 3 shots, 1G.
3rd game vs Pit: 6 shots, 1 A.

Well, he doesn't seem to be intimidated by the game or by top-notch opponents. May be a diamond in the rough here.

he works his ass off, he's got wheels, and he's not terrible with the puck. supremely underrated, like Matt Calvert was 2 years ago.

I'm really surprise no one has picked him up yet in my pool. I'm seriously considering buying out Comeau for him. I really hate buying out players as my pool is a modified cap and it hurts a lot but I might just have to.

Well I missed the boat. Went to pick him up today and low and behold he was gone. 2 more goals last night. Oh well.

I have a feeling he could be that next Callahan type of player to shoot up the depth chart. Im still not completely convinced he is a top 6 guy but the guy plays with his heart on his sleeve.

Excellent comparison you drew there. Maybe Callahan-light in the next year or two.

Two weeks later... any more insight into this guy?
