i want to see greb called up

Why not let Greb get used to life in Canada, smaller rinks, different game.
No need to rush him to the Leafs. he isn't a franchise player that needs to be challenged to grow.

He would be a 13th forward, if there is an injury call him up. Otherwise no harm in a little rippining.

Let's hope that Minten can have a good season with the Marlies. Such a deep and strong team already. It might be worth checking out a few Marlies games this season.

Should be interesting how they handle the goalie rotation in Hildeby, Artur, and Murray.
The young guys probably get majority of the starts, but you want to have Murray involved too. You might need him if Stolarz or Woll get minor injuries.

Excited to see his development. Leafs could use him.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Like it or not Danford is years away.

Oh noes...

 

[darrylsittler27]

Oh noes...

Well luckily you are a Leaf fan. Being let down and abused is par for the course.

 

[Stringer Bell]

Ty Voit - 4 games with the Cyclones no points...oof. But looks like that whole team can't score.

 

[TheMadHatTrick]

This will be an interesting comp going forward since they were taken one pick apart and are similar type players.

Victor Johansson, LD, 6'1" 159lbs
(J20 Nationell) 17gp 1g 13a 47pim +14
(SHL) 2gp 0g 0a 0pts 0pim EVEN

Aron Kiviharju, LD, 5'10" 185lbs
(Liiga) 19gp 3g 3a 4pim +5

Those would be light years away.

 

[darrylsittler27]

Those would be light years away.

Yes he is outside our window.

Light year is a measure of distance.

Obviously early but it does kind of feel like Danford is the kind of prospect that if you took him with a 2nd or 3rd you would be intrigued by and happy to have in the pipeline....but with a 1st will leave you wanting.

He's struggling coming back from a concussion. Yeah I'd say it's kind of early to be making any assumptions about his long term potential.

I think we all kinda expected that but would've been nice to see a little progression on the offensive end, although admittedly it's still early season

I’m just saying, he didn’t really have the draft year production and now has gotten off to a really slow start to this season. If he had a history of it I wouldn’t be as worried about a bad start. Not saying I am writing the kid off or anything but I have my concerns.

Anybody watching the Marlies care to give any update on Niemela? Seems like the guy burst onto the scene a few years ago and hasn't been able to grow his game at all for the last 2 or 3 years.

Definitely a bit concerning that our entire top 4 dmen are over 30 and it looks like we have no good D prospects in the pipeline for the next few years...

He's been pretty good from the few games I've seen. He seems more aggressive defensively and his skill level obviously stands out at that level.

I would not be surprised if he was put in a package for a trade in the next few months but there's a good chance he's a Timmins replacement if he's injured or going into next season. Not sure about his NHL potential and his lack of pre-season games probably isn't very good for his chances.
