Mini Ovi was off the radar the last year or two. His game seemed to regress in Russia. Would be terrific if he could turn into a viable forward prospect, given his wheels - we need more speed at forward. He also looks a bit bigger to me than I remember from a couple years ago.
Hildeby and Arty actually make it seem like we could produce a starting goaltender.
Some interesting forwards in the pipeline...
Now we just need to develop a top pairing defenseman
Hildeby 2 straight SOs
I hope he finally gets an extended look at some point. Feel like he gets spot duty playing 7-8 minutes on the fourth line for a couple of games and then gets scratched or sent back down.
Yeah, he's been marinating in the AHL for a few years and I think it's now or never for him.
He has a brother playing for Notre Dame. 21 years old. Scored 21 goals as a freshman last year and has 7 in the first 11 games this year. This followed 39 goals and 67 points in 60 USHL games the year prior. Another free wallet for the Marlies maybe? Only issue is 5’8”.
and what is it he wants?even if we dont sign any, i dont want to sign a 35 yr old JT for what hes going to want. its a young mans league and much faster than it used to be, JT has been getting caved 5v5 for a few years now and i think its only going to get worse. i like him but 7 years was good for me
Epic first sentence
a 4th line of Steeves - Holmberg - McMann (injuries aside) to start the year, and we'd probably be in a better place and have a couple extra million of cap from Kampf and Reaves to help upgrade the D.
