Name this player!

Keeps opponents honest in the defensive zone with his physical style of play ... tough, rangy, defenseman with excellent size and reach ... plays the game with an edge ... is passionate about the game of hockey ... has worked on keeping his emotions in check on the ice ... makes life miserable for opposing forwards in front of his net and in the corners ... good open-ice hitter that forces opponents to know where he is at all times ... has made huge strides in developing his offensive skills ... strong skater with the ability to jump into the play ... has a strong, accurate shot from the point!

I'm curious if anyone will know who this is...

Agree. On paper the lines seem to have some balance though I'm sure Q will juggle p huck out of them so it may be hard to tell what they'll like a month from now.

I did like the Rozsival signing a lot as he was a guy besides Ekman Larssen for PHX who stood out on their defense to me in the playoffs...blocked a ton of shots and always seemed to be in one of our fwds faces.

Stephen Johns!

6'4 / 233 lbs according to his profile on Notre Dame's website...Been following his progress since his USNTD U-17 days...

Hopefully he'll keep progressing and can contribute to the Hawks blue line in 2-3 years...

Looks like Leafs have traded to Lombardi to PHX for conditional pick. I knew they had to move a Centre at some point before the season. I would have hoped Stan put in a call to Nonis about Steckel... he'd be great on the 4th line and PK. Would take a lot of pressure off of Toews and wouldn't cost much.

I would have loved McClement but Leafs had him lined up - as insignificant of a move it would have been he could have really helped. Check out this story on him:

Which was pointed out to us by a Jet faithful last season shortly after the trade.

I don't remember that happening but I do know they were not upset about the trade.

Usually someone Oduya's age has an estabished level of play ....

And I have brought up in the past many times that isn't as a #3 or even #4 dman on a solid playoff club.

Two possibilities:

Due to his contract status he might have to be re-enry waivered to be brought up. Although that seems really unlikely. Or they have made a deal and added a goalie. If they made the deal that was close over the weekend (or similar—which was a defenseman for a goalie) then they might need to make room by losing a goalie.

Sure am. It started a few days ago when Eklund did his upgrade. The 1st day I couldn't get past page 10 on JJ's blog. Just now I refreshed and it took me to JJ's blog before this one
