How ironic that Drouin is the one leading the Q in scoring. You'd think it'd be that other center playing for Halifax.

...That's why he's talking about him... because we can't watch him play.

Sucks to wait until late January to see Quebec come to Halifax, gonna be a great game though I'm sure. I think the criticism has lit a fire under Grigorenko, good for the kid, bad for the rest of the Q.

and he was picked 17 spots after grig

Yaks has nothing left to prove in the chl. He's not eligible for the ahl. Sidney Crosby is considering joining a khl club for the lockout.

There is no moral failing in going overseas. Yakupov wants to play in the NHL as soon as he can.

I will admit that Rob Schremp Grigorenko has put up nice stats against boys.

Who cares if it's still junior, if this gives the guy some confidence and he learns he gets better results with more effort night in and night out, he could be the steal of the draft, who knows? But he's playing good hockey and that's more you can say for any NHL player right now.

Larry Quinn is still a pretentious, conceited a*s. WTF ever got done with his input and brilliant ideas on the waterfront? He and his ilk have been who helped to hold Buffalo back for years. Thank God he is out of the picture now.

Only an idiot urban planner would try to hit a homerun on what gets built on the Buffalo waterfront. They tried that for decades and nothing got done. If they would have hit "singles" 20-30 yeas ago then it would be much further along in its development than it is now. Hit singles, build a solid infrastructure and then maybe the major, big developments happen. Larry Quinn tried to hit a "homerun" in the brown fields of the waterfront when building it up and then swinging for fences might have been the way to go, kind of like they are doing now.

On Canalside: “The vision for Canalside that they have now is very different than what I had. Canalside, right now, is a very nice, very seasonal experience. I don’t see it as being a 12-month experience. I don’t see it as being the catalyst for a major movement of people into the city. As fun as it is, you’re talking thousands of people, not millions of people. What we were trying to do is get an anchor.

On the Sabres’ planned HarborCenter ice-rink complex, which he refers to as “good” but not “great”: “It doesn’t have to be a home run. It can be a nice single.”

On fans’ reactions to him: “Shortly after I left the Sabres I had to go to the Walden Galleria for something, and I ended up in the mall with a line of seven or eight people – I didn’t know any of them – who wanted to say thank you for helping the team. That was very gratifying.”
• On whether Pegula appreciates how Quinn and Golisano rebuilt and strengthened the Sabres franchise, which Golisano purchased out of bankruptcy: “Yeah, I do. I like Terry, and I think he does (appreciate it). I think Terry is a good guy.”
• On the Sabres’ multimillion-dollar locker room/training facility expansion under Pegula: “I thought it was overkill, honestly.”
• On the NHL lockout: “I get the sense there’s no negotiating going on … I’m not unsympathetic to a lot of the players’ positions. But negotiate. There’s a middle ground there. Figure out what it is and start playing

He is 18 years old , What is it going to hurt him playing a few more games against boys and working on his game ? I really glad he is not going against men yet. The kid is still filling out. Less chance of getting badly hurt .

I get it now . Rob Schremp never met his potential , broke your heart and you must project that on any young talent coming that reminds you of that . Dude go get some therapy.

Rob shremp put up 100+ points as an over ager. On a London sqaud that was very good. He is a little under sized at 5'10 185. Grigorenko put up 40/45 in his first year in the Q. He is 6'3 and roughly 200lbs, and still filling out. I see no similariities in their games, I can't see Grigorenko being a bust. He will hit 100pts if he stays healthy this year.

I also have Chris Gratton in the back of my mind as a good comparable.

I just can't understand how your are not the GM of a multiple Stanley Cup champion . You have such incredible insight on how an 18 year olds career will end up . Get over yourself . Only time will tell if the kid is an all star or a bust . But to pass judgement on him this early is just stupid .
