im still holding out .1% hope for Mittelstadt-Nylander-Zadina trio in the AHL next year, just to see Roch arena overcapacity while these three carve that league up.

I don't believe Zadina can play in the AHL next year.

The ncaa will anounce the at large teams and make the bracket march 18th. Gotta wait til then at least.
- TheHank


We gotta see how the other bubble teams pan out,
but I’m pretty sure losing these 2 games sealed Minny’s fate

Botts has probably already had some preliminary dialogue with his “advisor”


St.Cloud is one of the top ranked teams,
so we should get to see Borgen play deep into the tourney at least

I’m sure we will push to sign him ASAP as well

Boston College is also a bubble team
So we could see Fitzgerald get signed pretty soon too

he's an import/loanee from the czech league, id think the same loophole that allowed Nylander to play in the AHL would work for Zadina.

Honestly, im more worried about ottawa spoiling our party than arizona at this point. They do not look good. Arizona is like 7-2-1 in their last ten.

After the Sens beat Vegas last night ..... I still have hope in them.

From the ten mins of research i just did i think he was on a junior team in the czech republic. Nylander was on a pro league in sweden. Im not sure but i dont think its the same thing as far as eligibility goes. I think hes still considered a junior. Anyone know for sure?

this is kind of dicey and im not fully sure but it appears that in the time he was in the czech league, he was loaned to pardubice's u20 team, however he was still property of the pro team there and did play 25 games with the "first team".

I think that would qualify him as a pro no?

Von Dudensteins,
If you didn’t believe 3ER about who Bills should move up to draft, Rosen just etched it in stone at the combine today. The dude even looks like ARod. I got a man crush. I thought Mike White had a nice day. Full disclosure, 3ER liked Jimmy Garopps at the combine too.

Other than that, Shaquem Griffin only has one arm, but can replace Preston Brown any day as far as I’m concerned.

I have no idea.
I think if hes the pick, hes wearing a sabres uniform next year honestly. Kid looks really good.

at that contract he's good value and that doesnt factor in the clubhouse stuff. Well respected and pretty smart guy. They could (and have) done worse.

It's classic Shapiro move, cost effective short term deal until guys like bichette and guerrero jr are ready

Imports aren't usually loaned. He might be, I have no idea how to tell the difference.

I don't know, I read an article that said Nylander was loaned to the Steelheads and i read one that said he was taken in the import draft.

Is it that once drafted, its up to the player/club to allow that player to leave?
