Sanheim 10th, Morin 14th, Ghost 19th.

Haha, Button loves him some Flyers.

 

[Tripod]

Here's Buttons prospect list.

Sanheim 10th, Morin 14th, Ghost 19th.

I'm confused....where is Sven Baertschi?

They don't put superstars on the list, only prospects.

I knew I liked Button.

That's awesome it came out the same day.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Forgot to mention he has Hicketts ahead of Sanheim!!!

I just don't see it with Hicketts. I just don't see the talent to compensate for his lack of size. I wouldn't be surprised if he struggles in the AHL when he leaves juniors.

From the blurb...

He's a very good skater, with above-average skill and shooting abilities, and despite his size, he was the only Canadian defenseman to be used regularly on both the power play and penalty kill at the WJC.

Small defensemen can play and play well in the NHL if they have a dynamic skill set. Hicketts certainly fits that description.

So..which is it?

The guy is clueless. I'm convinced he does scoreboard scouting in most cases.

 

[FlyTimmo]

I like how many people think Morin is some terrible defender because he did not receive big playing time at the WJC.

That's the only time people have seen him play. The prospect board = glutton for punishment.

Leafs fans have had a roller coaster ride today though. Seeing Nylander ranked #1 on one list and then #16 on a separate list must have taken some of the air out of the balloon.

The thing I find weird is how Pronman has Kapanen rated highly still since it looks like the WJC's was a big factor in player movement. Kapanen just got done bombing in his second international tournament in a row.

I don't get if he has a pattern or not. Hell he probably doesn't either.

It must be all those Finnish league games he personally watches all the time (yeah right ).

It's because he made the WJC team and Detroit signed him, two things that are vastly overrated by most prospect rankers.

Pronman always had a love for Kapanen. He rated him as a top 10 player and if I am not mistaken did once say how he thought he could become one of the drafts best players.

Phantoms game just started and they have their new orange and black third jerseys.

Also, they REALLY need Ghost to come back.

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

I'm going to the game tomorrow night. Unfortunately, my work schedule hasn't allowed me to watch as many games as I would have liked.

Going to catch the 3rd period of this game though. Phantoms up 1-0 in 2nd intermission.

“As long as they are limiting the chances, they are one of the scariest pairs you'll see offensively for sure.”

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

Phantoms 0-7 on the PP lol.

Like Striker said, they need Ghost.

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

:

Phantoms D got split on the PK. Devils outlet pass lead to breakaway.

edit: Tied 2-2 now.

 

[Striiker]

This is all your fault. They were winning until you showed up.

Is Sanheim playing the right side?

Is Sanheim playing the right side?

From what I saw the other day, he was playing left.

 

[FLYguy3911]

no...

He has in the past. He's better on the left.

At one point in the game the other night he had 4 different partners on 4 different shifts.

 

[Prongo]

NAK had a 5 point night in a 10-2 blowout

Berube coaches a WHL team too?
