“As they did with fellow top prospect Seamus Casey, it would be in Nemec’s best interest for him to spend some time in the AHL with the Utica Comets. It’s already paying dividends for Casey, as he’s put up four points in just two games while playing significantly more ice time.” [New Jersey Hockey Now]
