You should be. He's going to be a good one. 8 points in 8 games so far

Its Rochester.

It's hard to take you seriously when you say things like that. Armia's tied for 2nd on the Amerks in scoring and has looked great with Grigo so far.

Armia and Gringo are doing some great things together. And they seem to be having fun doing it. 20 more games together should go a long way in getting even better.

what do you get for ennis if you move him? im sure that a bunch of teams would be happy to take him off of our hands and try him out on the wing, but i have a tough time seeing anybody digging deep to put together a package for him. id keep him, he doesnt take shifts off, creates space for himself- with little to no help, and isnt nearly the defensive liability that hodgson is. in a perfect world, he is nowhere near our best forward, but murray is building this the right way, and im starting to think that tyler ennis might find a spot here when its done.

I like Ennis but don't see him here past 2 years.
No rush to trade him but at some point he is a man without a position.

Ennis will be a 2nd line winger capable of scoring 30 in a couple years IMO. Kid already proved he can score 20-25 on this dumpster fire of a team and is still young and entering his prime.

Tim Kennedy and Nathan Gerbe did real good down there too.
No time and space up in the big leagues.

Yea, not the best 2 comparisons. Armia is a 6'3 skilled sniper.

I think Grigorenko by putting on the mass and getting stronger will make him a good pro. Armia not as sure about. I know he is doing good for 8 games for Amerks

Its Rochester.
- hafgod

I'm aware. It's the same place Grigorenko (who you have penciled in as our 2C) is

Gerbe is doing pretty good too.

And you can guarantee this in the NHL right?
Just stop the nonsense already.

The word sniper should be reserved for elite scorers. Looked at wiki Armia has never had a 20 goal season. If that's a sniper. Derek roy is one too

And besides his first year in Rochester last season, what was the most amount of games in a year he's played?

Exactly.
Jesus now Armia is a "sniper" ????

It was a pencil because Reinhart was there too

I hope we can keep them down and healthy for the bulk of this season. I'm buying into the whole win in Rochester motif Murray is rolling out.

54.

Grigernko McDavid Reinhart all centers
Not impressed by Armia
Girgensons is a center too
Moulson will be old by the time I am good.\
I have McCabe Risto Zadorov

I bet you haven't watched a single Amerks game this year.... amiright?

In his 3 years in the Finnish elite league (playing with men) he averages 30 goals per 82 games.

That was kind of the plan with them two all along IMO. Get them together and acclimated together... some good chemistry.

Tanking, my concern.


I have this uneasy feeling that the league is already onto us and despite finishing dead last they are going to pull some crap and say "Too bad you guys pick 6th". Then Toronto gets Mcdavid and we get to spend 8 years getting ourselves out of the hole we dug.
- Buffalo-Sabres

the worst we could do is pick 2nd ..

who cares we get Eichel

And besides his first year in Rochester last season, what was the most amount of games in a year he's played?
- sbroads24

For example Grigernko had 40 in 59 games. That's sniping

I can truly honestly say that I have not Vince.
But for someone to call Armia a bonafide "sniper" is just hilarity.

Off topic but, I really wonder if some here have a real job?
Jesus.
