Gabe Perreault emerged through New York Rangers“Pre-season and training camp, and it is difficult to ignore.
Compared to his arrival in New York at the end of last season, Perreault seems to be more ready to play at a professional level.
Thanks to the training camp, Perreault continued to stand out during practices among certain veterans already established.
The 20-year-old striker has already recorded two goals in two pre-season games because he makes Rangers difficult to refuse him a list place.
“I think that, of course, Gabe has a NHL talent,” said Mike Sullivan. “I think he is exposed. He is a really talented child. I think he is a great hockey player … I think he plays with courage. He is ready to enter the battle areas. I think he can become a little stronger, and it will help him and help him in this area, but we were really encouraged with this game.”
The big question is whether Perreault will benefit from playing with the Rangers in a more limited role or with the Hartford Wolf Pack in an enlarged role where it will have a ton of opportunities.
Although Sullivan has not engaged in one direction or the other, he thinks that over time, Perreault will be a good known merchandise in the Big Apple.
“I think it is important that he gets minutes and that he is playing because it is probably in the best interest of his global development, and in turn, in the best interest of the New York Rangers,” said Sullivan. “Whether it takes place in New York or Hartford, we still be determined. As I said, we are really encouraged with his game. He seems to improve with each game he plays. We try to reserve a judgment and let the camp take place here …
Mike Sullivan will be responsible for bringing the excitement to Madison Square Garden
For years, Mike Sullivan is a rival division of New York RangersCroinging Pittsburgh’s Penguins.
“The question with young players is the best formula for this player to finally help him become the impact player that we have all planned to be? Is it a lot of minutes at the American League level, or do we play at the NHL level? I don’t know there is an exact formula for that. I think it’s a little feeling process. My impression of him, and just watch it.
The status of Perreault with the Rangers for this season is still in doubt, but if he continues to play as if he has been in the past two weeks, it will only be a matter of time before playing in the NHL.
