VS in SCF --> wins SCF in 6 Games

Well .. it is time for a Canadian team to finally win the Cup again. It will never be the Leafs so what the hey!

Alec Martinez was a fine signing. 1-year stopgap vet. No problem. Giving Brodie term was a weird call though. He looked cooked as hell last night. The guy has no legs. It should be him, not Allan, that comes out of the lineup when Kaiser is ready.

Looking forward to the end of the year when Rinzel, Moore and Greene sign.

The Brodie signing was a disaster before the ink was even dry. The organization has young options at D that can play. IE Allan and Kaiser.

I wouldn't have given him 1 year at the league minimum. He was cooked in Toronto and healthy scratched in the playoffs. 2 years at his term although not a Huberdeau level contract, it is still a bad look. It's almost like KD was taking care of a 2nd cousin.

Brodie definitely sucks, good to see Davidson isn’t scared to waste the Wirtz family’s money just for fun

We already knew that when he retained on Kane just to waste a pick on Misiak lmao

 

[Malagahawks]

Porter Martone -> Chicago Blackhawks

He looks quite good in the highlights and is top 5 rated on many portals. What's the skinny on him? Is he day 1 NHL ready to plug in on 98's right wing?

6'3" 195 lbs, but looks even bigger than that with the eye test. He has taken on a leadership role every team he's been on. He has a ton of skill and plays a similar style of game to Matthew Tkachuk. He doesn't have the added pest-like features the Tkachuk brothers possess, but he uses his size very well nonetheless. He's one of the older players in the draft and he is developed well physically. I say there is a good chance he can make the NHL roster if he continues to have a good season and summer workouts.


The knock people have on him is his foot speed. He is a bigger guy and while his foot quickness isn't great, his speed is deceptively faster than people give him credit for.

Is he 2way ready, meaning he's also above average on D?

Posters will keep on spelling Nolan Allan's last name as Allen.

Musto will continue to be on a first name basis with Nazar. Upon his first multi-point game in Rockford, he'll post "If Frank isn't called up, burn the house down".

Despite solid production this year, Ryan Greene will not get his deserved prospect treatment on this board.

Bonus long shot: A young player on the Hawks will notice Kaiser's sister and try to become his(Kaiser's) best friend.

#'s 1-3 were lay-ups. Hell, even the thread starter now calls Nazar "Frank".

No updates on #4. Yet.
