Jalen Chatfield
Former player- LaRose Current player- Chatfield
I’ll try to nominate Pitkanen as most underrated because he was always a scapegoat. And then when he had his horrific injury the already mid at best defense totally fell apart. I think a lot of the hate towards him was just him being a bit weird personality wise, though he was very prone to mental mistakes.
If you believe some on the internet he also pushed the team to draft Aho but he wasn’t an official scout until after he was drafted, so who knows.
I’m gonna nominate Tim Gleason
LaRose for former player. Fast for current player
Stormy
absolute juggernaut of a defensive player, has been absolutely carrying in the mascot tournaments.
PK currently. He needs to be the starter a season ago
Of all time and league wide – it’s always gonna be Slavin. We value him but league wide he doesn’t get nearly the credit he truly deserves.
Definitely Rosie for most underrated he set up plays on goals beautifully and had really good precision when he shot the puck towards the net
Most underrated? PK. He’s phenomenal, especially after this season, & NHL still hasn’t given him any attention.
Nominating Cory Stillman. Only played a few seasons here but obviously helped out a lot with the Cup run in ‘06.
