JC Lipon is looking really good out there. I think St. John's is going to love him this season. Nice offensive instincts and not afraid to mix it up or throw hits.

Kichton looks really good out there. What a steal.

The one guy I haven't really noticed yet is Lowry.

People sure like to dump on Sutter but he was taking a beating on the 1st powerplay for a good solid minute. Some one has to do the dirty work and he sure doesn't mind doing it

I wouldn't have much of an issue with Sutter if he was a 3rd to 5th round pick - as a second round pick, I expect a bit more from his game. He definitely did work the "tough" areas on that PP though - I'll agree with that.

Not at all a fan of picking a goalie in the first two rounds. History shows just how much of a crap shoot it really is. However, I didn't mind the Comrie pick.

He was a 2nd round pick in a very poor draft. If you want just flop Kosmo and Sutter and it will make you feel better I guess. There was something like 4 or 5 19 year olds drafted that round. That usually is a good sign the draft was weak.

Some other thoughts on players

Kosmo - really impressing me. Seen him a few times in the OHL so I know what he brings but his skill level is so high right now.

Lowry - Just a big wrecking ball and monster to handle down low. Needs some time in the AHL but once he gets the pro game worked out we have a gem here

Lipon - The small wrecking ball. Works his butt off and never backs down. Going to compete in the AHL at the very least

Comrie - Just a steady period. Good rebound control. Great value pick

Actually, that's pretty funny! Good idea. I feel better now, and already happier with Sutter. :laugh: ;)

Comrie is such a great positional goalie. What a difference compared to watching Pavelec.

LOL Get excited, Gene Principe. Your plug Oiler who will never play an NHL game beat up our Jet player who will never play in the NHL #smallvictories

Also, Sutter has been a real disappointment. Stop *****ing at the ref and do something positive on the ice.
