Right on queue, he scored a sick goal. I am pleased with the other guys. On ice this small, it is tough to stand out.
- Slump Buster

Is it small?

Ratzlaf has also been very good. We still have an outside shot at 50 shots tonight.

Is it small?

Both Rinks are Regulation

Helenius was very good.
except for the missed goal on the wide open net.

Well yes.

I was sitting in that corner. Believe it or not, the goalie got it with the paddle.

Fun game so far. My observations:

- kulich looks amazing. On top of his skill, he is physical and aggressive. He looks fully acclamated to North America and ready to play center in the league. Outside shot at 2c with cozens sliding over?
- all of the top prospects look great. Helenious is as advertised.
- the two Russian kids look really good. I think both play in the league
- komarov looks lost. Rough night
- if kisakov or Kozak ever had a window, it is closed
- the only other guy that stood out is pacha, who is regularly getting his hat handed to him.
- Marty Biron is much taller than I remember

I think that's a year too late. Unless there are multiple injuries, he has no chance here.

Kozak plays 4C and injuries really killed his sophomore season. He plays the way Lindy likes and he's a very good PK guy and can throw down when needed. I will give him another year in Rochester and see where it goes, his game fits Ruff's style.

You get pretty optimistic with these fringe prospects. Their record drafting/developing bottom 6 guys is abysmal.

Why because I was optimistic about Nadeau and Kozak. I like energy guys and think Kozak still fits, especially with Lindy here now. And your right about there record and shouldn't have to spend a 2nd rnd pick on one.

Hope Johnson shows up in Camp, his game would match well with either Dahlin or Power if he can reach his potential

Yes the bottom 6 last year got crushed and was pretty bad.

Greenway should be shipped to Siberia though

Kulich has been playing in the AHL for 2 years grown adults. Playing against kids should look very easy.

Helenious same situation. Has been playing against adults since he was 16 or 17. Playing against kids should also be easy.

Sabres brought in actual prospects and not half their AHL team

- Sabretooth9

I thought Greenway was our best bottom 6 player once casey got shipped out and only issue was the coaching staff played him about 3 or 4 minutes too much per game

Unfortunately another overpay trade. Be interesting to see where Lindy sees his fit.
