You got that right on him, Peter, especially with tanker's spelling yesterday of GEORGIEV he misspelled instead to be GREGORIEV.

I see Jimbo posted the table from the column by Scott Wheeler. (Thanks jimbo)
Corey Pronman gave his takeaways from the World Junior Summer Showcase between Canada, Finland, Sweden and the USA’s U20 teams. He also watched video of Finland and the Czech Republic’s U20 teams playing a two-game set. These are the Rangers mentioned:

Lauri Pajuniemi, RW, New York Rangers:
Pajuniemi played one game versus the Czechs and didn’t go to Kamloops. I wasn’t blown away by him in that one game, but I saw flashes of above-average speed and skill that could make him intriguing as a prospect. At his size, I have questions on if he’s dynamic enough offensively to be a legit NHLer, but I’ve bumped him up to a bubble prospect.

Nils Lundkvist, D, New York Rangers: I was a Lundkvist skeptic heading into the draft and I still have heavy skepticism on a small defenseman with average hands going in the first, but he played solid at the event, so credit where credit’s due. He showed fantastic poise with the puck and gets it up the ice well. He’s mobile and was decent on both special teams. I still have upside questions, but I bumped him up as a prospect.

Joey Keane, D, New York Rangers: Some OHL friends of mine were Keane diehards last season, and I’m beginning to see why. He’s very mobile, smart and has some skill, too. He plays well at both ends of the rink, and at this camp, he had nice flashes of offensive creativity. I wouldn’t classify Keane as a true top prospect, but he’s trended up for me in the past week, and I think he worked his way into the conversation for USA’s final team in December.

Thx for nothing, Levine
- This means none of the NYR' prospects made it to the top100?

I'll doubt it

Is it me or does Rykov (57) look like vintage Mcdonagh in this clip?

Can’t answer as Pronman hasn’t posted his top-100 lately. Most recent was Wheeler’s top-50 which jimbo posted and he had one Ranger on it.

Considering the Rangers are in the midst of what I've been advocating for a 18-24 months now, that either makes incredbly lucky or somewhat intelligent.

But they didn't do it by purposely "tanking" as you mainly & first always propose, in having rosters then expected to compete for a Cup win. Tanking purposely doesn't guarantee you a lottery win, or any draftee selection you hope they will be able to pick. You saw in this draft, how they even selected "off the board", in contrast to what most had expected. Tanking purposely for the season will also hold up the proper development of a team's most youngest Pro roster players.

Can't blame him. He's probably balls deep in a plastic bag coated with mayonnaise, no time for coming up with actual good material.

Why don't you post this here as well?https://www.hockeybuzz.co...146644&page=last#18998931

"Peter is it true that you had a conjugal visit with Anders Brevik in one of those summer camps that you people call a jail?"

Can you get any lower?

Hopefully someone knows who this creep eichiefs9 is and PM's me.
I promise he will get a proper warning.

It's been kind of a disaster for some time now.

Not the blog, the comment section.
