Note: Tim Erixon Is One Of The Top Prospects In The AHL
At ESPN Insider, Corey Pronman writes that Rangers defenseman Tim Erixon is one of the best prospects playing in the AHL.
He says that Erixon’s point per game pace in the AHL doesn’t even do him justice:
Erixon is logging huge minutes and playing at a very high-end level at both ends of the rink. His puck-moving skills and overall hockey sense are true plus abilities and he looks like the kind of player who will be able to play versus the opponents’ better players and still keep the play flowing in his team’s favor.
He also considers Erixon to be one of the best defense prospects playing outside the NHL right now.
He had some trouble with the size of the rink and physical play when he was with the team this season, but the reports from Hartford are still showing tremendous upside for Erixon.
