Hope is still alive for your Sunday game ..Guelph survived a 3rd period comeback from Sarnia to win 5-4 ..next game tomorrow ....if they win you get your Sunday afternoon fun! Poitras looked good, like Dom says he battles for pucks hard in the offensive zone for a guy his size ..runs out of gas though on the back check.....which can lead to odd man rushes from what I've seen. Again ..Mast is big
Good stuff...happy for you G B, good to hear Poitras looking good. Do you see Mast having NHL upside (yes to early).
I don't see why not ..he's got the size and he's poised in his own zone, makes good crisp outlet passes, seems to like to activate himself in the offensive zone so he's got some instincts plus he's wearing an A so he's got some leadership skills. Doesn't seem to have a mean streak though. Maybe comparable is a 5/6/ Forbert like trajectory?

Okay, so I wanted to reply, but only after I checked how much 19 year olds previosly played for the adult team (spoiler - not a lot), then I had some personal things to do instead of posting, then I was just lazy.
Perfect. How did he look playing against grown men(outside of the goal)? Was he on the right side of the puck? And was he strong enough?
I missed the game so the best there is for both of us is this video of his goal.
Box office emailed me and I got centre ice tickets for me and the kid ..if you want to say hello let's meet up at at 1st or 2nd intermission ...or before the game if you get there early
Sure thing! I will pm you later tomorrow.
I talked to Dyck either Tuesday or Wednesday and he said there have been no discussions about joining Providence or Maine for the remainder of the season but things could have changed since then.Poitras lives to fight another day beating Mast and Sarnia 3-1, series is now 3-2
Poitras 1 assist +1
Mast 1 shot -1
In the Q Victoriaville Tigres won't be down for breakfast as they lost 4-2
Brunet 1 assist 5 shots -2 2nd Star
No doubt Brunet gets signed to something, the bigger question is where does he play next year?
Maine lost 4-1, DiPietro the backup
No sign of Reid Dyck, that of course could change or he just needs a break and we'll see him in late July
As @DominicT reported our guy Dustyn McFaul is doing the Grad year (5th year) thing,Clarkson should be more competitive next season

The whole back end about to get a facelift it seems. I’m sure they will give games to them all.
I remember asking @Saxon Eric who he felt was the most pressing addition they needed to make of all these kids and he said Ryan Mast and I assumed it was because he is the right shot defenceman they could use. I wanted to see Poitras but Eric changed my opinion. Poitras just turned 19 less than a month ago so his time will come so I hope Poitras can come back and knock Mast out of the playoffs.
