Nazar looked extremely fast from the games I watched. Didnt do much but at least made some kind of impression I guess. Hopefully comes out next year and has a great season.

Gavin Hayes has only 2 assists in the prior 6 games (both in same game) of Flint's playoff series with Saginaw..Let us hope he shows up big tonight in Game 7 ...Lack of production disapointibg in these pkayoffs so far.

On tge other hand...I realky am impressed by 2006 born dman Zayne Parekh of Saginaw (2024 Draft eligible )..Justv6'0 170 ar this stage maybe he spurts by draft tine next year ...But a terrific puck mover...great skater..and more wow! a fantastic goal scoring dman.Had 21 goals for Saginaw in the regular season and 4 goals in 6 playoff games so far for Saginaw..He is going to be a very top dnan prospect next draft..

Maybe truly never know what it was

He told the athletic in his interview that he didnt wanna go into details about what his injury was. Cant remember the exact quote but that was the jist of it.

His body his right

His body his right

Absolutely, got no issue was just elaborating. Seemed like the athletic knew beforehand bc they kinda phrased the question in a way to say they knew he didnt want to get into specifics.

Hope the kid continues his upward trajectory.

Am I the only one who thinks it's absolutely bananas to throw Stauber in with other two?

Guessing Ben did it because of the similar ages

My heart skipped a beat here

I'm guessing Ben is an idiot who doesn't know what he's watching. Stauber isn't some athletic freak posting numbers below what his ability is suggesting. He's a guy who's out of pro hockey before Commesso's deal has finished.

I really hope you're right but I just don't see it.

You never know.

He is only 23 and had good career in NCAA and has flashed at NHL level

People didn't think highly of guys like Belfour, Joseph and Talbot coming from college undrafted, but they found success and I believe are the 3 most successful undrafted NCAA goalies to play in NHL at this point.

That is absurd claim.

Stauber is good enough at be riding buses in Rockford or playing in Europe for years to come

He hasn't flashed. He's posted decent numbers in a very limited number of games. Goalies are voodoo but he doesn't have the technical ability or freak athletic ability. He's a place holder.

Goaltending in particular is about so much more than your numbers. I think Commesso has Brian Elliot 1b potential. Soda has the guy potential but it's a longshot. I'm not bullish on our young goalies. I'd love to be proven wrong.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Belfour and Joseph were athletic freaks. Talbot was posting significantly better numbers in the AHL. Stauber is much closer to the sub 900 sv% guy he's proven to be than he's not.

The 2923 World u18s Men's champiobshios start April 20th.
So far heard nothing from Hockey Canada no Canada's roster for the tournament ...but with Regina now outvof WHL pkayoffs Connor Bedard and Tanner Howe(2024 draft) shoukd bebon ot..

Mathew Wood) 2023 draft eligible fromU.Comnecticut also eligible....basically any 2005 born or earlier is eligible..but some ifvtgexekigibke CANADIANS are headed into round 2 of playoffsin their Junior leagues and are not available.

So Canda may have to include younger 2006 borns and maybe sone 2097 borns..

The BCHL still has not left Hockey Canada so eligible from tgat league coukd also make tge team if not still in playoffs.

As usual Canada cannot send its best squad to thus tournament due to some eligibkex still in playoffs...

So handicapped and maybe loaded with younger talent,and not even much tone to practice before their 1st game on April 20th,even with Brdard Canada may be very hard pressed to ice a contender to win it.

Relax man it's not that deep, he's the third regarded goaltender prospect in the system.

 

[hawksfan50]

If the ChicagivSteel release Celebrini nd Perron to Canada for the World u18s tha woukd help Canada a lot..

If Bedard agrees to pkay that helps Canada immensely.

Bedardvhas nothing to prove at that tournament but still if your Country asks.. Havevtgey asked?

ANDREW CRUSTALL s eligible...But is he fully healthy?

We have yet to hear who Canada has going over on theirvu18 squad .

But the announcement has to cone very soon as it starts April 20th.

Looking forward to seeing the Prince George / Seattle series. I haven't seen PG play this season and would like to get a look at Heidt and Ziemmer. Hopefully the T-Birds have everyone healthy and ready to go.

Everyone is back (lambert missed final two games of first series with a non covid related illness)

Will be the first time that your top 9 is fully healthy (Vegas draftee Jordan Gustafson and Draft Eligible Gracyn Sawchyn are back)
