Prospect Info: Marlies & Prospect Discussion

[ULF_55]

Dude is smart and steady, decent size, similar progression as McMann. AHL deal, then NHL deal.

They must see something long term in him.

He makes $150k in the minors, but that doesn't go far in Toronto.

Bonus money for being on the NHL roster?

Maybe Rifai's girlfriend/wife is working too lol.

Anyone have any info on our ncaa prospects
How did they do in season
Are they in the playoffs

Grebenkin into the next round?

Yeah, they play Avtomobilist next with Leafs 2018 7th rounder Semyon Kizimov.

A quick summary: Almost all of them had about the same kinda year they had last year (Miller, Miettinen, Koster,Schingoethe and Fusco). Not sure any of the guys have earned ELC’s. Leafs rights to Koster and Miettinen expire in August. Candidates for AHL deals.
Recently acquired Cade Webber was the Hockey East defender of the year, big dude, shot blocking machine, likely gets an ELC when the season ends.
‘23 Hudson Malinoski had a decent freshman year, tracking well. Team still has his rights for a long time.

There is no market for Minten. We over rate our prospects. Right now we are ranked 28th but our fans think we have a good pool.With no picks next year we will soon be the worst in the NHL. If we hadn't traded Sandin and got Cowan we are dead last. Our players are fringe NHL ers outside Cowan. The evidence suggest we draft very poorly and get players later for a reason, no one wants those guys. 4th line C, 6 and 7 dmen if that. Every team has those and they are easy to pick up. Look at this way..If we take out Cowan not one player would get more than a second rounder. It also means we are hand tied next TD.

These posts are just so damn uneducated.

I think we can 99% guarantee Webber gets offered.
Otherwise, why bother trading a pick for him?

I think Kitchener/Waterloo or London area would be good and probably could create enough interest to support them.

 

[Magic Man]

It will be interesting to see how many of that grouping of expiring prospects sign ELC's. The 3 drafted by Toronto are all on the bubble. You could argue for or against all of them.

I second London. Huge hockey city, tons of money there.

Would love to see London get one, doubt it though. Too small of a city technically.

They draw 9k for the Knights every home game. More than Arizona.

Less than 4k per game for 5 years now.

But would London support 2 professional teams? Knights and Growlers?

Well....we do have 7 picks this year

Ya but some publication ranked the Leafs prospect pool as 28th in the league so that's gospel.

Never has one of those lists been incredibly wrong and the team at the top of that list always wins the Cup so it is what it is.

pretty confident I read a post on twitter last week that insinuated that Webber intends to sign with us at the conclusion of his season.

Correct!
Boston University defenceman Cade Webber says he intends to sign with the Maple Leafs

Even if ahl London only drew 6500, it would still be an above average ahl franchise.


Knights fans know tickets are hard to come by and are sold out months ahead of time.

London and surrounding area(population 500,000+) is fairly hockey crazy.

I wonder if the Leafs are gonna sign Miettinen and Koster? Both could return to the NCAA for a 5th season but I think if they have any sort of pro career this is the time to sign. I'm not a big fan of Miettinen but I do think Koster has some intriguing potential.

Miettinen hasn't really improved his play much since his junior year.

Koster at the very least should get some run with the Marlies to see if he can hack it. He is a pretty decent player.
