He'll bounce around. I think another team would take a shot with him. He does provide some good energy.

I just think players like him are a dime a dozen. I don't see why the team feels the need to give him a starting spot every game. He's not good enough to have carved out an everyday spot.

Unlike Ben Eager or Darroll Powe, I don't think he has the talent to really entice another team to give him a shot... and even those guys are out of the league now.

I'd list several I'd have wanted but now I'd like to see if they Flyers have any interest in Guillaume GĂ©linas of Val-dOr

He's really small, but his point production speaks for itself. How is he in his own zone? Does he get eaten alive along the boards?

Solid, like many young D has room for improvement but why not he was never drafted.

He crushed Robby Fabbri with a beautiful hit tonight even though Guelph is winning right now

Powe was a decent defensive player. Eager was a terrific fighter and a true heavyweight.

Yeah, Rinaldo's not even that useful.

Eager had pretty nifty hands, was supposed to become a power forward. Powe was Rinaldo with a brain and a clue in the defensive zone.

Whoever wins the East is going to be a hefty underdog whoever comes out of the West.

He's got a lot of PIM for a little guy.

Guelph is like a machine right now

So (frank)ing lucky.

I guess the Habs goal was somewhat lucky too, but at least they went to the net. Rangers score on weird deflection from bad angle.

Rinaldo is a better hitter. Thats pretty much the only thing he did better than Powe. I don't see why Rinaldo is so irreplaceable. Has the guy ever been a healthy scratch?

If the Kings play the Rangers, it will be like watching hockey played in mud.

I think they can get Kulemin for pennies on the dollar after the last couple of seasons.

i would love to get kulemin on a cheap deal

So far Staal has:

Sat on the puck along the boards forcing a whistle.
Tackled a Hab in the Rangers crease.
Hooked / hacked every Hab in sight.

Could probably afford Thornton or B Boyle if we go cheap and get Kulemin.
