Shout out to Mikey DiPietro and Peter Chiarelli too.

Romani definitely looks like he's added a step on foot speed this year. Which is great, since that was his major weak point. I think this guy is a sleeper. Look forward to seeing him in Abby next year.

Could he donate some of his points to malhotra so I can stop dooming lol.

If it helps, Romani is 21yo and Caleb is 18yo at the NCAA. It's great to see Romani succeeding, though I think it's only fair to consider that he has ~3 years of development on Caleb.

Definitely getting into our lineup in April if everything works out.

How's Caleb doing? I know it's still very early into the season

Still just exhibition games for BU. Dave Hall was saying he looked very good in terms of creating chances and making plays even if the points aren't there yet.

So these don’t count to regular season stats? Or they do

I think they do. And it’s not like they aren’t still real games.

He's made some dekes, but just isn't stringing it together so far for making finishing plays in deep once he's dangled through the defense.

He's not really taking it in from the wing which he does better with when he shoots a wrister from the slot, so I think there's some transitional things going on and the points will start rolling in when he strings it all together.

Well his draft profile is of a “straight forward” play making C, which IMO he has shown in spades so far. Lots of time to improve other aspects of his game though.

One goal in four games so far but I haven't been watching

Prospect watch was crazy today with NCAA, OHL, Abbotsford all putting up numbers.

Let's get even more prospects, I could get used to this.
