hey guys havent heard much about gajan since he came back from the olympics tbh i think hes got some promise and hope he can build on what he saw over there man a little experience in a real nhl training camp would be good for him imo
I agree that Gajan has some upside, but at 19, he's already been part of a pro system in Grand Rapids and attended an NHL training camp last season. Maybe more development time overseas or in the minors would be beneficial before throwing him into another big league camp.
yeah gajan prob needs to get back to some actual hockey experience but a year in the minors probably wont hurt his development tbh @fenwickfan got that right

ngl i think fenwickfan's onto somethin, gajan did get some taste of nhl camp last year but a few more yrs in the minors would be way better for his dev than tryin to jump straight into an actual nhl game @section114chi what u got against a little extra time in grand rapids?

@fenwickfan's got a point, prob worth keepin gajan in GR for a bit longer tbh @section114chi agree he needs some more minor league time

agree tbh it's kinda expected to spend a bit more time down in grand rapids before jumping straight into an nhl game man gotta get those reps and develop properly imo
yep gotta get those reps and develop properly, cant rush the kid's growth honestly raymond is the only guy i trust with the puck right now man

tbh idk how many yrs gajan needs to spend in GR but ngl it's better than throwing him into the fire as a rookie, might be worth keepin him down there til like october or somethin @pat_blackhawks

i cant see throwing him into the fire as a rookie either tbh gajan needs to get those extra reps and build some confidence before he's nhl ready honestly man

tbh cant see throwing him into the fire as a rookie either man gotta let him develop his game and get some consistency in GR first imo @fenwickfan'd be all over it if he went straight from Oly team to nhl games lol

man cant see throwing him into the fire as a rookie either id rather he gets some actual development time in GR then rushin him up and watchin him crash and burn honestly @pat_blackhawks and i'm thinkin maybe october like you said but honestly it could be later than that man

man i think october might be a good target too, but let's be real, if we're gonna keep him down there that long we should start calling him a veteran of the AHL or somethin @BlackhawksTruther lol
