All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!

i watched the rochester @ grand rapids game tonight. live and in person! grand rapids slaughtered rochester, 5-1. neither risto or larsson were playing. risto was sucker punched at the end of the game wednesday and is out with a concussion. i guess it was dirty dirty.
anyways, armia. boy, i like this kid alot. he reminded me of rick nash. now before you go nuts about me being a homer, i mean in his playing style. hes big and strong on the puck. he uses his body alot in the offensive zone and will use his body to carry the puck down low. where as other players would carry the puck to the slot if they had a lane, armia will make that lane with his body. he certainly looks like a top 6 scorer down the line. he just needs some polish.

Risto played well for Finland in last years junior tournament 6 points in 6 games tough break getting this concussion. Id guess he is unlikely to play in the junior tournament this year

it looks like he isnt going to miss too much time. week or so. hes been good for the amerks too.
rochester @ grand rapids game 2. much better effort, but still lost 3-1. nathan lieuwan played wonderfully. grand rapids is a great team, and he kept em in it. rochester had chances, but petr mrazek is an AWESOME goalie. detroits got a beauty in him.
larsson played, and his game was not spectacular, but effective. played well both ways, played on the PP. armia, again, used his body, but not like he did last night. he wasnt afraid to go in front, or in the corners. but what really impressed me was his forechecking. he created havoc at times with his effort. unfortunately, he doesnt seem to have top end speed. hes not a terrible skater, but hes not blazing fast. and maybe thats by design, as on the rush, he hangs back and waits for a pass to either shoot or bully his way down low. im unsure. but he was noticeable.
but hes a ways away from being an impact NHLer. but it will happen.
I had 3 goals and 3 assists in my senior league tonight...
35+? they didnt have enough goalies so i got to play in the lapeer league before i moved out to GR. i loved the 35+ league. it wasnt a bunch of youngsters who still think they can make the NHL. it was a bunch of guys having fun without the BS.

No it's not 35+ but it's a good league without the BS... at least for the most part.
every now and then some cement head tries to start **** but for the most part... those guys are weeded out.
Risto I would expect will play a ton of minutes for the Finns at the WJC and my expectations are he will be one of the better defensemen at the WJC.. 4 points in 5 games so far at Rochester I'm still not sure if he can be No.1 defensemen but a No.2 guy I think is realistic
