What the hell kinda skate is that and who is it for?

What's going on with Dal Colle? Is he going to turn into the player the Isles hoped for him to be?
- tomburton99

My guess is he ends up being a middle-6 forward. His skating is bad. He's got a great shot and good size though. Doubt he is ever a major impact player, but my guess is he'll still have a somewhat-valued role on the team. I could live with a third line of Beauvillier centering two big shoot-first wingers, in Bellows and Dal Colle.

Not what you want to see from a 5th overall pick, but that top-10 turned out to be largely-underwhelming. I admit I didn't want it at the time, but selecting Nylander probably would have been the right move.

Anthony Stewart tweeted a picture of it.

I have no idea if that's some sort of goofy prototype or what, but it's horrific looking.

Bellows is gonna be good. He's a good skater.

Edit: You also gotta like him leaving college and going to the WHL. Should help his game.

It's pretty horrific? I wonder it's designed for puck to go through it?

Idk just seems odd.

I'm not really sure how to feel about him. He's a big boy and he's growing into his frame, so I know his development will probably be slower. I don't know if I ever see him being an "impact player" either, but I think he'll be versatile. He's got a good shot and likes to shoot and plays a heavy game. Like Dal Colle, I'm thinking versatile middle six forward. It's not a shortcoming that I'm aware of, but I think developing, at least, a decent defensive game will be key for him.

I do think jumping over to Portland will be better for him in the long run. Busier schedule and more physical pro-style game will benefit him a lot more than playing an over-officiated college game with a lighter game-load.

Better question is you follow Anthony Stewart?

Kreider and Andersson worked together on faceoffs yesterday, interesting combo.

Mayfield is bad. So is Pelech.

If Mayfield could actually learn defense and positioning, he has some decent wheels for a big guy.

As soon as a puck hits it, its going to shatter.

Seemed like Kreider got the best of him. End of the video shows Andersson whipping a puck at the boards.

I'm actually surprised they don't have Kreids do more faceoffs. He is fantastic on the dot from what I remember.

This is why Kreider is wearing the "A"

They should give him a "TPC" though
