Maybe Rosehill is a genius and we'll play a better game short handed? Our 5 on 5 sucks, why not?

He was drafted in the 2nd round in 2010 by the Blue Jackets and not signed. He was undrafted last summer, although he was eligible. Had a huge year for Baie-Comeau in the QMJHL (41-41-82 in 55 GP)

Had a good year in his draft year, averaging over a point per game. But tailed off the next two years, but battled injuries.

Cool. But really he is a long sfot to make the team I guess. Thought you need to be about a 2 pt per game player in the q to be considered a top 6 player

They suck 5 v 5 so this might not be a horrible plan.

He was 17th in the league in scoring, despite missing 13 games. Not shabby. But as an overager, things have to be taken with a grain of salt.

Add in 18 points in 8 playoff games, per his agent Allan Walsh

it's hockey math.

sucky team A plus sucky team B = sucky game.

Bill, can you, please, project Gagne in the 1st line instead of Hartnell? I know it won't happen, but maybe someone will read it here and get an idea..

Thanx for reading...

I like the Flyers signing of Petr Straka. Apart from his overager numbers in the Q this year, he has definite NHL-caliber tools (speed and good hands). Back in 2010, some projected him as a first-round pick. He didn't really develop much, so Columbus didn't sign him, but then he had the huge overage season this year.

No risk signing with a potential high yield.

they've scored 66 goals and given up 89 during 5v5 play this season

they've scored 2 goals and given up 21 when down a man

so they've actually been better when they have 5 skaters on the ice
