Erie's last regular season game is 3/23, so Schaefer could potentially be done for the year.

Erie is probably a low seed playoff team without him, and could lose in the first round before he's cleared to play.

Hockey Canada usually "graduates" guys from U18 when they've played U20, but maybe they'll make an exception for Schaefer if Erie is out and it's the only chance he has to play hockey between his injury and the draft.

Is there any chance Sharks are interested in drafting Rimpinen at some point at the draft? He is D+1 goalie that is doing pretty good for Finland in U20 and seems to have nice stats in Liiga. I would be interested if he is somehow available at the late picks.

If he continues to play well, I believe some team will pick him up between 2-3 round.

We don't have a big need for a goalie prospect since getting Askarov, but could be interesting pick if there is no one better to draft at the spot.

He's looked good, but is he really only 6-0? Much like dmen under 5'11, the deck is seriously stacked against goalies 6'0 and under. Right now, it's what Saros and Wolf? I checked, Ned is also 6'0. Shesterkin, Ingram, and Grubbauer are 6'1 (as is Georgiev!).

In one of the prospects podcasts* I listen to it was mentioned that many teams have a 'don't draft below 6'2/6'3 limit)

Ivankovic is also 6'0, Andreyanov is 6'1. This supposed to be a pretty deep goalie draft, so I certainly wouldn't mind the team taking another goalie. Kirsch is 6'3, Korostelyov is 6'2, but Nabby was 6'0, and Speer worked closely with Wolf.

*Can't remember which unless it's Called up or SJHockeyNow they blend.

I reported the account. It's very sad that it's been allowed to continue, let alone exist in the first place.
It's all for the best.

If @Hogde had been allowed to infiltrate this world, then @Hodge as you know him ceases to exist! Right now, we have @Hogde, but there is also Independent @Hodge. That's the @Hodge we know, -- Smurf @Hodge, Barclay @Hodge, DW Jr @Hodge, Bawdy @Hodge.

If @Hogde walks through this door, he will kill Independent @Hodge! A @Hodge, divided against itself, can not stand!

Faster, better defensively, marginally better international performance (projects to significantly outperform Smith’s WJC albeit with same line mates and PPQB who are an all a year older). Also, I don’t know this to be true, but BC fans claim their SOS has been really tough so far. Perhaps his collegiate production will pick up in the second half.

At most, he’s an inch shorter and by the combine he could prove to be the same height, though he is a bit lighter (again that may change by the combine).
I would say Hagens has been a bit worse than Smith so far and beating up on Latvia and Germany with a stacked line hasn't done much to alleviate the concerns about him since he had 0 against Finland and Canada. I'd want him to produce in the next two games at the very least.

Just put them all on ignore, who in their right mind would give someone that much attention.
