Erie. And you can bet that after the rather open grievances that the Red Wings had with the development of Zack Torquato, that the Wings will only send Sheahan to the O if they can get him into a different program.

He will probably end up in Windsor and get the big bucks from that organization like Fowler did. Close to Detroit, plus he'll grab a nice signing bonus. Seems like Brisson is running the ship now, should be a good haul for Riley.
But back to Jarred, he will be a big boost to London. He's the type of player they needed last year. A year or two in London will be perfect for a player of his ilk. First class organization with an unrestrictive system.
i asked the same question on the habs board: for those who know london's current roster list, how does tinordi stack up? Will he be top 4? First wave on pk? I read an interview that said the hunters want tinordi to develop and use his offensive game more, which is interesting since he doesnt have much of one. Maybe they see something we don't.

They're going to be really disappointed if they think Tinordi is a bigger and tougher version of John Carlson.

True, but Carlson is much more offensive and a better all-around blueliner. I assume that's what he was getting at.

That wasn't really my point. Comparing Tinordi to Carlson (at this point) is a pipe dream. They're not that similar, other than both being Americans going to London.

But they might have seen the same things in Carlson that they see in Tinordi, I'd give him at least a year in the CHL before I decided too completely right off the thought, however unlikely.

That's cool... when the Knights come to play in Sudbury (if they do this season), I'll get to watch him play at least once.
I'm pleased (for myself) but I hope it's the wiser of the possible decisions (for him). We'll see.

Probably a good move for Tinordi. He's a CHL style of player, and I think he likely would have signed to play in the AHL after two years of college anyways. Who knows, Montreal might even elect to put him in Hamilton after this year.

Most people are seeing him as somewhat of a long-term project, 3-4 years. If he can fill out his frame and get a lot of ice time without a significant injury maybe Hamilton next season isn't that far of a stretch but I doubt it.

I like the fact that London is going to encourage him to develop his skill set, but yeah i don't think anyone in the Habs organization is thinking he is similar in skill to Carlson.

I wonder what Jeff Jackson will have to say about this one, after his comments last year about the OHL paying players under the table, which got him in hot water as Kitchner was considering a lawsuit. Not a good day for Notre Dame but I had a feeling this would happen as Gainey is close friends with Mark Hunter and it was said at the draft that the Hunters were very aggressive in trying to lure Tinordi to London.

Fantastic!
Twice as long of a season, tough travel schedule, and much much much better competition. It's way better preparation for the NHL. Glad to see him make the right decision.

I saw that and shock my head. That's a horrible comparsion to the kid. Carlson didn't even try for most of the year and was still the best D-man in the OHL. I'm not holding Jarred to that standing. I expect a good solid two way guy that takes care of his own end first.
Carlson is 4 inches shorter the Tinordi but at the same weight when he arrived in London. Jarred brings the leadership that Carlson didn't have.
London now has a Jared and a Jarred.....
I like that he is playing in the OHL and for the Hunters. I don't expect Tinordi to produce offensively (like Carlson) but i hope he can develop into a strong defensive d-man with some bite to his game. What excites me most about Tinordi is his mobility for a big-man.

Sorry but the Carlson-Tinordi comparison has to stop. They are nowhere near the same type of players.

Seriously though. Pretty weird opening a Tinordi thread and seeing Carlson's name in every second post. Where did that fascination come from anyways?

I don't trust the source. There's nothing about it on the London Free Press' website, aside from a translated version of the original article.

Was Tinordi one of the eight Notre Dame recruits arrested for minor consumption? If so, he would have probably faced some sort of discipline, which would have played into his decision. Sheahan almost surely faces discipline after his arrest this summer... which will probably affect his ultimate decision. Palmieri would have faced discipline as well, but his decision was made easier by the fact that he'll go straight to the AHL.
In summary, Notre Dame should probably stick to recruiting kids who don't care so much for the sauce.
TSN is now reporting it. Not sure why the Hunters would compare Tinordi to Carlson. Seems to be apples to oranges there.
I just hope Tinordi develops into a smarter and more mobile Komisarek.

Heh, I actually just finished reading the entire Free Press article and considering there are Hunter quotes in it, discard what I said. It looks official. I think that was translated from english to french and not the other way around like I thought at first.
He wasn't at Notre Dame last year, so you have to assume he was not. He would have been a freshman this year.
As for the Carlsson comparison, it's really on the writer who made it. Not the Hunters.

No he wasn't.
He's talking about the second incident, that one happened this summer. Tinordi was at Notre Dame this summer taking summer classes, but was not among the arrested.
He might not have sky-high offensive potential, but I think it's not that far-fetched to expect him to become a great top-4 d-man, 20-30 points scorer, who's nasty, willing to drop the gloves, and willing to play to the limits of legality. He'll not have to worry a whole lot about playing with the puck anyway, Subban will be at his right taking care of that business.
All I want him to be is a psycho, nasty mother****er who plays great defense and who's a legit top-4 d-man, so he can act as a partner and as a bodyguard to Subban. And playing under Hunter, you can be sure the "psycho" and "nasty mother****er" aspects of his game are sure to be there... He just has to keep improving his defensive play and, if possible, learn how to fight properly this year in the OHL.
