No, this guy.

Why not both? Can never have too much Burns.

Nah, at age 40, the fire diminishes.

Burns successor?

Montgomery likely doesn’t play with the hurricanes. He is going to need some good improvement in skating to play the canes system.

 

[Svechhammer]

He's a long-term project. Looked decent in the preseason last year, but needs a lot of time to grow his game. I highly doubt he'll see any NHL playing time in the next 3 years, barring a rash of injuries that has us digging deep in the 2 way contract pool.

 

[Discipline Daddy]

I have Bryce 15th or so on our prospect depth chart.

1) Alexander Nikishin
2) Scott Morrow
3) Dominik Badinka
4) Noel Fransen
5) Aleksi Heimosalmi
6) Charles-Alexis Legault
7) Anttoni Honka
8) Simon Forsmark
9) Timur Kol
10) Vladimir Grudinin
11) Joel Nystrom
12) Ronan Seeley

And then after that I'd still list 3 or 4 prospects who I think have a <5% chance of making the show before I'd put Bryce. He played in the ECHL last year and I think he'll do the same this year. I don't think he has the skating to make the team. Rooting for him though.
