Below is a translated quote from a La Presse article by Mathias Brunet who spoke to Wisconsin Badgers assistant coach Mark Osiecki who is responsible for coaching the defensemen. Below is one of the quotes about what he thinks regarding Habs prospect, Ryan McDonagh.
Osiecki also goes on to say that McDonagh is having trouble reading the play and his reaction time isn’t where it should be at this point in his development at the NCAA level. He does credit McDonagh with having a high hockey IQ and natural ability.
“He is inconsistent,” said Osiecki “Last year, he played like a man in this league. He physically dominated. He was reliable defensively and very tough on the opponent. He really finished the year strong and I thought he would continue to play the same way this season. But he’s tried to do the work of everyone instead of keeping things simple. Maybe he is putting a little too much pressure on himself. ”
