Let's keep the discussion here to training camp. Anything that doesn't fit into other threads can go in the OT thread.

So with Kulak and Josh Brown playing together, and doing well, that does forecast Emberson playing with Nurse. I know it's early and that Knoblauch said that finding quality players mattered more early on than finding chemistry but it seems this is the plan.
Realistically wouldn't it be right to say he'll likely be similar to Ceci, perhaps a bit worse due to inexperience, but with room to grow to be better?
But stylistically I'm concerned that the description of him reminds me of Ceci a bit

It’s so early in camp, I don’t read anything into those other than KK assessing Browns fit with who would likely be his partner in the event of a 7th man call up. I still think Stecher depth charts ahead of Brown once camp breaks.

There's no way you can walk into the stat of the season with Josh Brown playing regular minutes

Early in training camp is when the coaches pursue their "wish list" roster. Reality often smacks them over the head and a realistic roster eventually emerges.

Idk. I think it speaks to them having desire to replicate what they lost in Desharnais. As for Stecher, my wish there is that I hope he looks good and ends up playing with Nurse actually. Judging by last year, Nurse would do better with someone mobile who moves the puck, and not the safe, defensive type.
Maybe Emberson pushes Brown out but Brown swaps in a bunch.
I bet Brown will look better here than he has in the past. Kulak always looks great on the bottom pairing and Brown is a complement the way Desharnais was.
Wouldn’t it be fitting for Noah Philp to take Derek Ryan’s spot? Both U of A alumni’s, both started their careers late and both start as 4Cs

Maybe with this scouting department we can get some sandpaper instead of the Pulju/Yamo shit show we’ve had to endure.

This isn't EA Sports.
We have Skinner. Dont need a goalie who wants $10M a year.

How did you get that from what he wrote?Hopefully you're not suggesting Skinner will want 10 mil AAV.

No, Swayman wants 10 sheets.

I mean they signed him to a 3 year deal and he brings something to the table that we sorely lack especially with Kane out of the lineup. I doubt that he's much of a downgrade from Vinny.
