I would have thought more of a club team for them... I may be stuck in the late 90s, pre-Coyotes.

I was just razzing you. On the surface, it's definitely weird they have a team.

Ryan O'Reilly (not that Ryan O'Reilly) has been playing there the past two seasons ;)

Which is funny because the Coyotes are using their arena.

...:laugh:

Oh man, that's so bad. Now I remember. Combination of me being ignorant and Arizona hockey being irrelevant but the latter angle is way funnier.

And yet, it's not funny because Mastro will be playing for that program. Oof.

Im not the biggest Mastriomone fan but it'd really suck if he doesnt get a contract. How is grand rapids supposed to improve if we keep letting our middling college prospects walk.

That’s where Josh Doan is. They’ll probably be linemates.

Pretty big upset by Cotton's 8th seed Vancouver eliminating the 1st seed Everett. 13 points in 6 games for Cotton although it was a high scoring series (30-26), still pretty great being part of nearly half of their goals.

With Cotton aging out and the aim for Edvinsson, Johansson, and Viro coming over, paired with McIsaac and Sebrango already in the A, there’s going to be a very young and interesting set defensive prospects to follow in the NHL and AHL next year.

At least I hope that none end up in the ECHL

I think Cotton will.

If all those guys are in GR then it seems quite likely. They've also got Newpower and Barton in the mix under contract. Lashoff will probably be back and they might want another veteran D also. But Cotton is a righty and we have very few of them on D so that increases his chances to at least get signed.

Just based on the numbers, at least one of them will at some point. GR isn't going to totally turn its back on AHL veterans either. If I had to put money on it, I think Viro gets loaned back to Europe. Just no room at the inn.

Well you’ve got 3 coming over, 2 currently there, and 1 turning pro. It’s not out of the realm of possibility that 2 move to the NHL, whether that’s Edvinsson and Johansson directly, or maybe Edvinsson and Sebrango/McIsaac come into camp and play their way up.

It’s only 4 new names and 1 likely to be in the NHL (in my opinion). So while you don’t want to force 3 new names into the mix if it’s not needed, it’s not like they’re replacing the entire defensive corps in a swoop.

You could be right. Appreciate that I am pretty bearish on Johansson in terms of current NHL readiness. I think he will need more time to adjust to NA hockey than most are admitting, at least in the defensive zone. I have him spending most, if not all of next year in GR. For me the bigger consideration is the presence of AHL vets. You always see a couple of them on AHL rosters and I don't expect that to change unless we are willing to sacrifice a ton of competitiveness in GR.

Alex Cotton is still unsigned, I wonder if this playoff performance gets him a contract?

Cossa stays on his heater... 26 Save Shutout in Game 2... Back-to-Back Shutouts for the big fella

How about a .957 SV% and 3 SOs in 6 Games

Showing that round one wasn't a fluke and doubling up on the shutouts. Nice to see.
