[Ghoste]

Nice to see Sourdif doing well after being out for a good stretch with an injury I believe. Appleby with another shutout.

Sign him now. Do eeeet

 

[Thewselius]

Glifford 20+ games in the SHL this year. First game video I've seen of him. Month old. He moves great in the crease for his size. Needs better control the rebounds though. Pad save at 4:40 was slick.

We also have this kid in the system:

 

[ShootIt]

I know the KHL is the top league there, what is the Rus-VHL in relation to that?

Also, sort of crazy to have a 1.91 GAA and 0.927 and have 7 losses and 7 ties.

 

[BabyBennettov]

Devine, Mackie, Sourdif...

We may not have a great pipeline, but those three will be players, you can bet on it !

I believe that is 2 tier in Russia for their KHL youth teams:

MHL
VHL
KHL

Exactly... VHL would be second-tier, farm-clubs to the KHL.

KHL = NHL
VHL = AHL
MHL = Juniors

Juniors work differently in Russia, but those would be the different tiers.

I’m going to miss Knight and he’s going to be a star but at the end of the day, goalies are the most replaceable. You don’t need a superstar in net to win. You need a good team around a quality goaltender. Hopefully these Russians develop into something.

I disagree with this slightly, but the only reason I'm fine with this is Bob is a freak conditioned athlete, maybe the best ever at the goalie position. And our sports science department is the top of the top . I still wouldn't bank on Bob being the same in 5 years, but in 3 years, maybe. Yes probably. We have an entire goalie excellence department. They have 3 years to find Bob's successor, or at least acquire enough quality prospects t o set us on the path for that, and I'm confident Lu will get it done. And how many Cups will we win in the next 3 years with Jones? Good chance at least one, if Barky, Chucky, Reino, Forsling stay healthy....and Samo becomes what we think he'll become. Zito will always find the foot soldiers .
