Sure, but they also view Vaak as their 3rd best young player just behind McAvoy and Pasta. I think he is going to be much much closer to the McAvoy/Pasta plan than the Zboril/Senyshyn plan.

Hopefully Vaaks goes to AHL for next season and is a regular NHL player on his +3 season.
Longterm,
Vaaks- McAvoy
Krug- Carlo
Gretzky
is the dream.

I agree - I would much rather those guys all play every game in Providence rather than having any of them up in Boston just to sit every night. In my opinion, having them up in Boston just to sit would be a huge waste of an opportunity and a lot of crucial development time lost given the nature of the position and the learning curve needed.

Wouldn't need to worry about a defense for awhile.
I think Vaaks- McAvoy& Krug- Carlo pairings would compliment each other very well. If Urho keeps developing.
Vaakanainen was named to finnish national team, so looks like he is not coming to P Bruins.

Just happy to see him get to play more hockey, and at a high level of competition

It's just first world championships training camp roster nothing else.
Only few guys ( if any at all ) on that roster will be Finland's official world championships team in May.
Yes I know that, and I don't think that he has any chance to world championships team.

Yeah, it's hard to believe Vaakanainen has chances to make Finland's world championships team.
But anything can happen especially then if Vaakanainen has good training camp.

Would be great for him to be around pro players in that type of environment, especially his peers but I'd be surprised if he made it as well.
Even if he was just in a depth role I think it would be good for him.
Thanks for the info though.

I understand that Bruins fans wants to see Vaakanainen succeeding with national team.
And become good or very good NHL dman.
But keep in mind that Urho is still 19 yrs old.
And the competition on roster spots to world championships is very hard.
It's not end of the world if Urho doesn't make world championships team this year.
Remember that Urho's time in Finnish national team is coming in few years anyway when older players retire.
Thank you for your insight, it is much appreciated!
Looking forward to seeing him at our dev camp in July if he doesn’t make WC’s.

They seem to be rotating them so I'm sure they'll still dress a fair share of the vets.

True. When I saw them last week there were more on-ice huddles than I can remember at a game. Fine line between prospects galore and development. I wonder if they have enough vets/toughness to make a playoff run. Keep vets from preying on kids. I thought Wilson from WBS went out of his way to mess with Frederic a couple of times.
