There's nothing wrong with a young goalie playing every night in the ECHL. This is the first sustained success Halverson has had in his professional career, and it's not even for 20 games. It's probably good for him to stay down there and work on his consistency. Let him play well for another 20 games, then maybe give him a look.

Tokarski has been playing well lately and I think they really want Hartford to have a playoff campaign.

Exactly. Goalies are just such a different animal. Hence why I’m not down on Olof the goalie YET.

Pajuniemi should be at the WJCs. I'm guessing they never wanted to gamble on a guy just coming back from injury, but he practically made himself a lock at the WJSS; you'd think they would of at least gave him a look.

I liked this pick back then and I like it even more now, slowish start but he’s starting to produce

He's the righty who made that pass? Nice play. No room for that kind of play in the NHL though. Need the big rink to create that much space. Not to poo-poo it, just saying.

Joey Keane had an assist in his debut with London.

Nanne has an assist with his game nearing the end.

Lakatoš had 2 assists. He's playing really well since his move from White Tigers with 2-7-9 in 12.

Pajuniemi had an assist.

Rykov had an assist.

Oh wow, I must have missed when he got traded to London, very good! Wonder where he slots in on among their defense.

Yeah the trade happened like 2 days ago, at night. So, recently.

He was paired with their over-age D Lochead in the lineups and I believe formed the third pair.
 
Glad that Paju is playing well. I've said this at least 7x but him and Virta are pretty much auditioning for the Fast and maybe Vesey replacements in the next 12-18 months. If one of those two can turn into Arvidsson lite, it speeds up the rebuild.

Good for Lakatos. I know the odds of him getting a contract are very slim but maybe he busts enough %%@ and they give him an AHL prove it deal.

Rangers fleeced Tampa in that deal which 99% of our fan base was crying about. Miller blows. He is a lazy dog as usual and Tampa fans hate him now.

LoL are they really complaining or you made that up? Hard to imagine them complaining about a guy who scored 44 points in 57 games with them.
 
I wanted Wahlstrom but holy shit did the Rangers shut me up. Kravtsov looks like he oozes skill unlike any prospect we have ever had since the late Cherepanov. And I think Kravtsov is more skilled. He's got some SICK moves.

Cherepanov was all skill, all offense. Kravtsov is a much more all round player

Probably true that Kravtsov is better in the d-zone; but when a guy is putting up near P/GP in the KHL at 19 (?), I will be very forgiving of a lack of defensive game.

And Chery's game promised to translate exceptionally well. Not saying that Kravtsov's won't, but all of the hefty projections we had for Cherepanov weren't being placed on a false idol. The kid wasn't just finessing his way onto the scoreboard; he was getting to the dirty areas while he was putting numbers comparable to Malkin and Ovechkin.

I no doubt believe Chery would have been a scorer because he reminded me of a lesser skating Bure. In the sense he almost scored without trying. But I feel that you look at Kravtsov on the ice and he stands out. His moves are amazing and never seen a guy his size try them.

I hope keane wasnt on the 3rd pair. The only 2 above him on the depth chart are boqvist and bouchard who are both at the wjc.
