Bob says scouts are high on Crouse & that they are using Patrick Kane as a reference when talking about Marner

Don't know why, but I just have a feeling it's going to be Zacha -- which I would have no issues with whatsoever

Only banned 3 times. obbo loves me. They would never ban me for an extended period of time.

Oh yeah...

A smidge less sizzle, but a bit more careful of the details than Kane.

well we're still in the running to lose that's good

I think that was deflected by the Jet standing in front.

Great shot, too -- Jets are pretty good, have talent

Crouse is who we need

Read looks like he is getting his wheels back.

I'm not as wired as some of you guys, but if Crouse is truly the kind of player I've heard described, just don't think he lasts to 7 or later

Well Zacha is out 5 weeks with an elbow injury

Was that Giroux that just got leveled by Buff?

Let the game get chippy!

Ha! I tend not to worry about injuries (other than concussions) in these young kids. If there's one thing kids do, it's heal fast

It's us old people who are always banged up

which is exactly why we need to lose

Kind of a frenetic pace but not bad. Seems like anything the Flyers do the Jets come right back and do the same thing.

Asked an OHL guy who watches him all the time and he said this to me "Crouse's skills will translate well at next level. Not gifted linemates. Defense first system doesn't = points. Huge growth - huge upside."

Ha! Just don't think the Flyers are as bad as the teams below them...that's not me just being a fan. Those teams below them are simply brutal

Love to have someone like that on the left side, I won't even lie.

I feel comfortable about the defenders they've drafted. Would love to get a LW in there with that profile

This is my worry on Crouse....

"And while he's scored 16 goals in 32 games (on pace for a 34-goal year if he had played every game) on an offensively challenged Frontenac team, the fact he has only 23 points has raises the issue of whether he's projected as a top-line NHL talent, or whether he just looks good playing alongside top point producers."

I think he might be very good playing on a line with Jake and G. But it really doesn't solve our problem of diversifying the offense.
