I hope it helps him become more aware of incoming hits. Interesting techniques curious if it will help. A work in progress that requires patience.

He’s 19 and already 6’3 240lbs, let’s give him some time, but he seems to have the character and motivation to get better, so that’s huge already.

Should watch Marinaro’s podcast, and hear what the TVA reporter (Nicholas Cloutier) had to say Slaf’s trainers response was & how his program was developed to specifically address Slaf’s inability to keep his head up

I suspect he will come in lighter at camp this year

I think he’ll settle at 220-225 in his career shape, which is still huge for a skilled forward.

For anyone interested, Scott Wheeler's ranking of the top-50 U23 prospects who aren't NHL regulars.

Reinbacher's 20th and Hutson's 27th, the only two that cracked the top-50 prospect list.
Honorable mentions: Joshua Roy, Filip Mesar, Owen Beck and Sean Farrell.

I watched it. Meatball is hard to watch, he’s so f’ing annoying with his Goomba schtick, that’s so obviously forced.Should watch Marinaro’s podcast, and hear what the TVA reporter (Nicholas Cloutier) had to say Slaf’s trainers response was & how his program was developed to specifically address Slaf’s inability to keep his head up

Well Wheeler had Michkov #2 last draft and Reinbacher #12 so this ranking is not surprising.

He's a terrible interviewer with an extremely limited scope of topics to discuss. He pretty much needs his guest to lead him down paths to have actual new topics to discuss. He's had Boisvert on a few times and they discuss, quite literally, the same 4 or 5 topics every time.
Makes fun of Boisvert for Quentin Musty.
Gets in a shouting match about Mailloux/Hutson. (God forbid someone not having the same opinion as him)
"Hey, what's your top-5 again? ...Wait, you had Reinbacher 5th?"
It's all schtick.

It’s intolerable.
Kraken will get the last laugh on Musty

I will get banned again soon, worry not.
The fast forward button is your friend. I watch on YouTube and just move the cursor past all the self-aggrandizing intro and the product placement and paid endorsement copy. When I see the guest show up in the frame I hit play. If the guest is Georges Laracque and Tony starts the interview with all this bullshit about pillows and having sex with his wife etc. I hit the fast forward again. I can watch an hour long podcast of his in about 15 minutes.
Yeah, the 8 minute intro. is ridiculous, as is the spraying his hair with water.

Part of it is schtick, absolutely. Like with wrestling, you gotta do something to stand out, whether it's a babyface or a heek.
...but schtick only works to a certain point, the wrestler's got to be able to do something beyond just being a heel. He's gotta be able to wrestle. When he has to actually start asking real questions, his lack of talent becomes flagrantly obvious.
