I just found out yesterday that Bennett and McDavid were linemates and friends in minor hockey for a 5 year period from 9 to 14 years old. They could do for the Sabres organization what Kane and Toews have done for the BlackhawksOriginally Posted by coastal

26 points in 63 games last year and this year he is close to a point per game average his offensive production has really taken off. 8 points in his last 5 games Kris Baker yesterday said Zadorov has been in a "dominant groove"
Yeah, but how is he defensively?
His positioning in his own end could use some improvement but it is not a glaring weakness.. His bread and butter is bone crushing body checks and with is size and above averge skating ability he has length and can cover a lot of ground and he can log a lot of minutes.. His love of seeking out the big hit at times takes him out of plays
that would be quite a story.
btw... as long as we're stroking it... The Isles pick will become Eichel!
Eichel Girgs... McDavid Bennett...

he needs some work, as already pointed out (but what 18 year old doesnt) but think of it this way; he was drafted because they think he can be extremely good defensively. his offense wasnt even part of the equation.
in 6 games with quebec, grigo has 4 goals and 4 assists for 8 points.
Is it good if you have 45 goals 40 assist for 85 points in 49 games?
85 points in 49 games? is that good? um, yes.
That's the Rangers 3rd round draft pick Anthony Duclair..
Odd's of him making it in the NHL are slim.
The great hockeys future has him rated as "7.0" with a probability of success as a "D"

thats a 7.5 B.
And...???
85 points in 49 games with 45 goals..
The best Grigs has ever done in the QMJHL is 40 goals and 85 points in 59 games.
Duclair also plays in the QMJHL and he has 45 goals and 85 points in 49 games..
and what? you claimed HF has grigo rated at a 7.0 D and hes not. so i posted his player page showing you.And...???
85 points in 49 games with 45 goals..
as far as his stat line, so what? what point are you trying to make?
No that's not what I claimed...My god..That's Anthony Duclairs rating from hockeys future..
The point I'm making is hockeys future is ****.
The best Grigs has ever done in the QMJHL is 40 goals and 85 points in 59 games.
Duclair also plays in the QMJHL and he has 45 goals and 85 points in 49 games..
oh, i didnt see the duclair post.
they dont use stats to get their rankings. they use scouting reports from NHL scouts as well as IIHF prospect rankings.
actually, you might want to keep an eye on duclair. i was reading up on the kid. apparently, he is ultra fast and has hyper good acceleration. he can also play with the puck at those speeds. he looks intriguing. to say the least.

update on the kids.
ullmark is having a hell of a season in sweden. bring him over next year, please.
Regarding Grigs.. 6 games is a small sample size but he should have more than 8 points.
