[Jesus comma Brodin]

Looks like Lambos and O’Rourke are making team Canada

McKenzie and Pronman reporting that Hunt got hurt blocking a shot today and it’s not a short term thing. McKenzie made point to mention he was a lock beforehand.

Peart possibly and Hunt an injury casualty. Fun year

Let’s hope they all continue to develop. Man, three hopefuls for team Canada is something to be pumped about. Top 4 is looking bright! (Fingers crossed)

I saw that play. He dropped his stick afterwards and kept playing, but something looked off then he wasn't on the ice much afterwards.

Lambos has a flat, firm, pro level pass every time I've seen him. One of my pet peeves is seeing "flip" passes that are not only hard to handle, but set up the receiver to get hammered because they take too long to get there. I would imagine that he puts some spin on the puck to make it sit.

I really like Lambos’ game. Plus level skater/athlete/defender. He looks like he could be a top pair guy to me.

I think you're right...not sure completely about his defending, but it looked at least ok. Not a lot of holes in his game. Hunt was the guy who shocked me. He looks like he has grown to a good 6'2", has a beautiful skating stride, and has a composed, efficient game. Brackett has outdone himself getting some D prospects, though we could use another RHD.

I really didn’t expect Hunt to get the praise like he is having. All 3 guys sound like good skaters. Huge bonus if he can become a top 4 guy.

Has there been any news on Boldy's status, or is it still just a mysterious lower body injury?

[P10p]

Getting scared that there is some crushing news regarding Boldy. I hope I'm wrong but it has been awfully quiet...

wouldnt he be on ltir if it was crushing?

LTIR can be retroactive afaik so I don't think this is necessarily true.

Khusnutdinov officially named on the Team Russia roster for the World Juniors. In other news there is a strong rumor that he will sign a 2-year extension soon.

I'm sure some people will argue that given how Kaprizov's development went we should leave him in the KHL, but do we think he'll get enough ice time over there? Especially on SKA...

Peart makes Team USA. Must have made quite the impression…

If he does sign a new deal with them then I wouldn't be surprised to see his TOI shoot up.

Jones with a pretty bad night in nets. 4 goals on 17 shots. Terrible rebound control, and is making like a sieve when he should be a wall. 4-1, but the shots are even. Mermis is impressing me less and less, also.

Rossi and Shaw assist on a Hicketts goal.

 

[57special]

IOwa stinks. Goaltending is bad, but they look like a disjointed team. 1/10 PP's. Shots 44- 26 in their favor, but lost 6-3.

They looked good earlier in the year, but this is hard to watch. Army better start coaching.

On Russo's podcast with Guerin yesterday, Guerin said it's less serious than his injury earlier this year.

 

[57special]

He looks bored with the idea. ... "Whatever!"...

 

[Goose312]

With the transfer agreement he could still sign an ELC? Don't see a reason for the Wild to not offer him a contract. Either you get a 2nd round pick, or he becomes the only RHD prospect after Addison even if he doesn't end up having NHL level talent.

 

[MuckOG]

 

[keppel146]

Buzz kill though..

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Would’ve preferred to get him over so we could see him and get him in games here and there, but I don’t think this is a bad sign at all. He’ll be NHL ready at the end of that deal.
