Michael Misa’s Sharks Scrimmage Performance: NHL Future or Still a Work in Progress?

Misa’s body, however, isn’t as NHL-ready as Macklin Celebrini’s at this time last year, so that’s an obstacle.

Misa also shared the feedback that he received from Sharks development coaches.

“One thing I take away is probably just always have my feet moving,” Misa said. “[Also] everyone’s so fast at the next level, so you always want to be scanning, kind of looking where your next play is.”

Two NHL scouts weighed in on whether Misa is ready for the best league in the world.

“NCAA. It’s just a much more natural progression. I don’t know why players wouldn’t do it,” Scout No. 1 said. “The NHL is hard and he won’t play much. Why not go to a top-flight college team, get used to a faster, more physical game, and make the jump next year?”
