I'm taking the high road moving forward.
Snuggy headed back, will be great for Moore to have him for his Sophomore year.
Rumor has it that Matthew Wood may transfer to Minnesota.

Not nearly as exciting as that story would have been a year ago, but a good addition all the same.Rumor has it that Matthew Wood may transfer to Minnesota.
Carolina is such a strong drafting team it hurts. People were complaining about the lower quality of prospects they gave up for Guentzel but the guys they gave up would have been right up near the top of our prospect poolNot twisted about it just making commentary. A year out and while there were some good picks in there so far like you mentioned, there were some dumb throw aways, too. Carolina was a couple picks behind us most picks and mopped up.
Was really just discussing guys who got overdrafted due to small sample size stuff, like Gajan from his four starts at the WJC or Misiak for a USHL playoff run at 18.5 years old. Or Marcel who played at WJC but did nothing in the Q but had another decent playoffs.
Rykov after Pharand.
Perron after Felcman.
Felix Unger Sorum after Misiak
Legault after Marcel
I would trade every prospect they picked for who we picked.
If by top you mean 7th or 8th maybe, then sure.Carolina is such a strong drafting team it hurts. People were complaining about the lower quality of prospects they gave up for Guentzel but the guys they gave up would have been right up near the top of our prospect pool
He likely doesn't move the needle either way so good for him on getting paid.Looks like I was wrong on Kayumov's chances to finally come over this summer: despite all the rumors he just signed a 3-year extension in the KHL.
Upd.: if the reports are right, he was just offered too much money to say no.
Yeah, to be fair I don't believe in him being a full-time NHLer anyway, therefore unlikely he'd get a great paycheck anyway, but sounds like Lokomotiv really offered him salary of a KHL star caliber (while he obviously isn't a star even there). So it made too much sense for him to agree, especially since he is experienced enough to be realistic about his abilities.He likely doesn't move the needle either way so good for him on getting paid.
Do you think they overpaid him a bit because they thought there was a legit chance he was going to try NA?Yeah, to be fair I don't believe in him being a full-time NHLer anyway, therefore unlikely he'd get a great paycheck anyway, but sounds like Lokomotiv really offered him salary of a KHL star caliber (while he obviously isn't a star even there).

Might be, wouldn't exclude that.Do you think they overpaid him a bit because they thought there was a legit chance he was going to try NA?
Hmmm who would you have above KoivunenIf by top you mean 7th or 8th maybe, then sure.
He still willI really like this kid. Powers thought he would go back to juniors next year.
Bedard right shot center with Demidov left shot right wing not an ideal combo. Still would require a big body on the other side.
After Celibrini, there’s no consensus. We’re going to have some happy posters, and some disappointed ones. Have to say that I find it impossible to know who the Hawks should pick at 2-5.
kantersov on 1LW again
OHL coaches poll Ludwinski 2nd best skater, Lardis 2nd best Goal scorer

Found Ian Mack’s burner?Regarding Vertical Jump and long jump.... Really does NOT speak to strength.... Vertical/Long jump tests really speak to Fast muscle twitch and SPEED!!!! Which is more important in Hockey and Basketball for example.
So Ludwinski and Kingston on the ropes down 3-1 in their series with North Bay...
Lardis and Brantford are down 2 -1in their series with Ottawa..
If Ludwinski and Lardos do not advance into 2ndcround of the OHL Eastern Conference they will be with Hawks or in Rockford within the next few days ...
Gavin Hayes and Sault Ste.Marie advance to the 2nd round of playoffs in the OHL Western Confetence.
The Hawks may not have room on the roster and do not know if Rockford can fit them into AHL roster limit or if they are added in time for
AHL playoffs eligibility?
Also do not know if rosters are expanded in AHL playoffs or not ...or whether they still have a deadline to be on the roster to be able to play in playoffs in the AHL.
Perhaps some poster can clarify these roster issues and scenario to maybe see Ludwinsku and Lardis in either a Hawks uniform or with Rockford if they join with games still remaining in Hawks or Hogs regular season schedule.
