[Kegs]

Surprised.

I’ve graduated Poitras in my mind. So only one prospect on that list.

Major curiosity here.

If Linkoping gets relegated, do the Bruins want him playing down a league or do they sign him and bring him to the AHL?

Or do they let him walk.

Hi Dom, in your opinion, where does he rank with the defense we have playing in the AHL now?

I don’t watch him play but he isn’t getting a lot of minutes over there. He is 21 do you see him making the jump to North America? I could see them letting him walk.

He just came back from missing 35 games due to surgery. Of course he is not going to get his 20 plus minutes a game yet.

I think they sign and then loan him back to Link,regardless
Don't think they'll let him walk

I hope you're right. But I will ask you this because more often than not, we agree:

If Linkoping gets relegated to the Allsvenskan league, would you rather see him in the AHL or go back to Sweden and play in the Allsvenskan?

Personally, if they get relegated I think that's 2 steps down for him. And the calendar gets very tight to get him out of his contract in Sweden.

AHL 100%

Hope he and the Bruins and Sweden make a deal

I just noticed this. I think I got it right.
According to Elite Prospects. of the 40 Bruins prospect skaters. Only 1 plays in the CHL.
Loke Johanson (D) for Moncton in the Q. None in the OHL or WHL.
Most are NCAA or AHL.

Not sure if that's unusual. Too lazy to look at other teams.

And Johansson was drafted out of AIK in Sweden not the CHL

That said it is unusual, but not inherently a good or a bad thing. CHL players would almost exclusively people from the last 2 drafts, so you are looking at a sample of 9 picks, and the only pick they had in the first 2 rounds from those drafts was someone from Ontario, but it was a player who had chosen the prep school / college route instead of CHL

And truthfully all of those 3rd round pick and beyond guys have been at least somewhat to very interesting this season. Way to early to tell if any of them become something, but certainly all have shown enough to make you think there is a chance.
