This year is Norlinder’s best shot. Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me, but he looks bigger. His passes are sharp and he skates well. Even if he doesn’t score, he puts oil in the offensive machinery, he also is good in transition. It’s all up to him, he deserves an honest opportunity to make the team.
Beck, Mesar, Heineman, and Kidney will definitely get some action in those preseason games.
Simoneau is a lil fire hydrant
I doubt he ever had much trade value. Might as well roll with Norlinder see how plays out. Not many has his offense ability. But doesn't look good right now. A couple years in Laval could be good on him though
Way too early to tell. He played well as a rookie in the AHL. It's a shame he got injured, but what he was showing was on pace for more than decent AHLer.
Just too many bodies ahead of him to pierce in this organization IMO.
Slafkovsky, Mesar, Beck & Hutson has the potential to be the team’s best draft since 1984 ( Svoboda, Corson, Richer & Roy). All it takes is one good draft to alter the fortunes of any team.
Much better to have the best player on the ice than to be celebratory about winning a largely meaningless game. And yes, celebratory is a real word.
Barely 30 games of AHL experience, sample size too small to make this assessment.
Some may have forgotten him. I thought he was as impressive as Guhle at last year’s camp. I still think it is to be determined whether that assessment is based on an overestimation of Fairbrother or an underestimation of Guhle.
René Lecavalier (from French Hockey Night in canada back when) also had perfect French and was greatHe’s got excellent French.
Much too well spoken to call a game.
That clean delivery, smooth voice, great name pronunciations, eloquent expressions, jumping in and out of the action with measured polish — this guy should be giving conferences.
Who is he? He’s damn good. Can’t believe TVA has the Castrato doing their games when this guy would provide instant credibility.
