I was flamed for saying this before but I think Levi rode the magic of one decent wjc showing. I don't see him as anything but an average to slightly below average goatlender. He possess nothing extraordinary to overcome his lack of size.

Watched a lot of Huskies and he stood on his head there. When he wins in Rochester, it's similar. When he loses... it's 4 or 5 against.

Standing on your head is a necessity if a) your team isn't very good or b) you have to because you are not very good. He isn't dominant due to lack of size and any particular outstanding athletic traits. He seems like a decent kid, but I never saw the "it" to warrant the hype and I too watched the Huskies quite a bit. Jmho.

If you're calling Levi up for one game during this road trip, kind of rude not to have it be the game against Montreal, in Montreal. This kid's home town.

I imagine they're considering Rochester's schedule as well in figuring when to call him up, if they can "sneak" in a game for him without throwing the Americans net into flux that is probably preferable.

I was never impressed with the Huskies talent level. They reminded me a lot of the Hasek era Sabres - score on the PP, try to keep the GA down, but not actually good defensively.

And they were opportunistic scorers. Not a consistent offensive philosophy. Again what do I know. I wanted to sign Sam long term but the brain trust in wny thought otherwise

trying to figure out goalies is so cute.
