LOL, do you think Vary is worth anything anymore? lol, you are kidding yourself.

Goalies are not the problem, except when we need our third goalie. Lack of depth. Lou got the tandem he wanted, all they need is a team in front of them.

Was at the game last night and here are my observations:
Bolduc-good shot not great defensively
Odelius-nice d zone exit on one play but still needs another 1/2-1 year in the AHL to develop
Foudy-Good overall game! Will never likely be more than a 4th liner in the NHL but better than Fashing, Martin and probably Kyle Maclean IMO
Jeffries-okay game one PP assist otherwise not too noticeable out there

No one else on Bridgeport is worth talking about unfortunately as the team lost 6-4!!

Saw that Liukas scored. Was just his 1st of the season.

That's a player who, while mucking things up in the Finnish Liiga and showing good thorn-in-the-side value at the WJC, has really fallen off the prospect map.

Both he and Kuefler seemed to have been drafted to be possible Matt Martin replacements. Neither looks to be anywhere on that path.

BTW, Justin Gill has 3-10-13 in 14 games for the ECHL affiliate. He also has 1-5-6 in 17 AHL games, but had 4 assists in his first 5, so he tailed off quite a bit over a 12-game phase and is back in Worcester.

However, Finnish Dman Mathias Rajaniemi, drafted late a good while back, only has 1-3-4 and -1 in 34 games there.
