Prospect thread

Cuylle is having a great year on a not so talented Pack. Almost a 20 goals. Bedard is insane. The scumbag Flyers are trying to tank their way in to him.

 

[kreidertime]

Vierling has 82 points in 53 games. 23 points in his last 12 games. Not much talk about him.

 

[Ranger71]

Garand had a decent year for 20 y/o in Hartford with under a 3GAA.

 

[kreidertime]

We need Garand to take a big step up next year.

 

[kreidertime]

We have some centers with good numbers and size in juniors. Been a long time since that happened. We really need one to come through in the next few years. Edstrom who they talked about is really interesting. He skates very well for a 6'7 guy. Not sure if he's playing center in Sweden. He looked good in the pre-season.

Othmann 6g 9a in last 8 games!

 

[kreidertime]

Othmann hasn't had a great year offensively but maybe he's working on other parts of his game. Cuylle 1 G 2 A last night. 13 points in his last 10 games. 24 points in his last 29 games. 20 G 16 A on the season which isn't easy on that team. That team should be a lot more fun to watch next season as our young talent goes there. Othmann, Korczak, Grubbe, Edstrom, Vierling. Maybe Sykora. I think they will trade Berard. Don't need him here.

 

[kreidertime]

We have some centers with some size coming up. Maybe one can make it in a couple years. Vierling is coming on big time. He’s a great skater. Reports are he needs to bulk up.

Mc-Barker and Vierling with 1 g 2 A last night

 

[Ranger71]

Sykora headed to the Pack.

 

[kreidertime]

Interesting

 

[kreidertime]

Pack made the playoffs

 

[kreidertime]

Grubbe had 5 A last game, 10 points in 5 playoff games.

 

[Ranger71]

Sounds like they won't be signing Grubbe and will look to trade him.

 

[kreidertime]

Why the hell would they do that?

 

[Ranger71]

Yeah I'm not sure as they're not exactly overflowing with C prospects.

 

[kreidertime]

Vierling had a monster year so he's one guy. Korczak is a solid center prospect but did nothing in his 5 game Pack audition which is understandable being barely 20 at the time. McC-Barker had a great year as an 18 year old center on a terrible team and has good size. Honestly, I figure they think they have Zibanejad, Trocheck and Chytil down the center. Lafreniere and Kakko with their hands need to be taking draws all off-season as Chytil sucks beyond belief on faceoffs. Goodrow to me is not a center. I think they really like this 6'7 guy Edstrom at center. He skates very well for a big guy that size and he looked good in the pre-season. The center position is pretty deep on the big club. If they knew at the deadline they weren't keeping him then why didn't they package him with a Jones for a worthwhile pick? Seems like a blunder by Drury.

 

[Ranger71]

Right, maybe with Korczak and McB ahead of him in the pecking order it's just a numbers game. He did have an injury coming into the draft so that could be still a factor.

 

[kreidertime]

Our prospects are doing pretty good in the playoffs. I’m hoping Edstrom becomes our Brian Boyle for a while soon.

 

[kreidertime]

Othmann proving he's made for the playoffs.

 

[kreidertime]

Othmann’s team won game 7. He had a goal. Unlike pussy Panarin he actually shows up in big games.

 

[Ranger71]

He will already be the best player on Hartford if he gets there in time.

 

[kreidertime]

Probably although Cuylle is good as well as Garand. Jones is a guy I would be trying to get if I was a team rebuilding.
