Question for the hockey experts...how much of that can he get away with as he moves up and players are all bigger, faster & stronger? Have you ever see Patrick Kane dangle at the NHL level? No reason why Mittelstadt can't do the same once he's developed and ready.

The real question is "how does he adapt after the first time he gets his clock cleaned?", because it's pretty much inevitable that it's going to happen. It pretty much wrecked Tim Connelly on an annual basis.

No one is going to even attempt to lay him out in a summer league game.

I saw him this summer in Buffalo and he scored a crazy goal in close that was impressive. He has the speed and hands, if he can take the physical punishment and still flourish we might have a great player here.

Some guy's lace hovers over the airspace of the crease for a tenth of a second and unhinged neck tattoo gives up 4 goals in two minutes. Just cut him.
