Richdg 267 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 no I can't say the who, whats when where why's...... So, he is a very humble kid. Mantha openly admits he hasn't adjusted to the AHL game yet. he is surprised at the difference in speed, strength, roughness etc.... wasn't expecting it to be as big a difference. Mantha thinks he needs a full year in GR. He is fully aware that the entire AHL targets him when he steps on the ice. the other teams game plan for him every shift. Of course all of this is good to hear/see. The game of adjustments is what makes or breaks most pro athletes. can they see what the other teams are doing and then adjust their game to counter it.

GMRwings1983 8,789 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 Damn. I thought this thread would be about former NHL'er, Moe Mantha. And his awesome moustache. 2 KATIEBARTHEDOOR24 and sputman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted December 12, 2014 It's likely Mantha probably did say something like this, I've heard many of his interviews and it does sound like something he would say. However, I don't really get the point of this thread... It could have easily been added to the already existing Mantha thread, and without being able to provide a source, it makes even less sense to post. Anyhow, Mantha should start the season in Detroit, if he starts in Grand Rapids, Ken Holland is a moron. He is that good, he definitely doesn't need time to adjust in the minor league...... 4 DatsyukianDekes, Rick D, rick zombo and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted December 12, 2014 It takes me a while to unread things. I've always been a bit slow at that. I hear ya. As far as Mantha goes, I think he'll be labeled with the "invisible" tag alot in his career. Night-to-night consistency was the knock on him pre draft. He plays a floaty type game too. So when he's not scoring, he's going to look like he's useless. Still excited about him though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
