Colin Dambrauskas: My Q&A Session and Write Up On Morgan Klimchuk

I think that's the first time I've ever heard someone say they want to play like one of the Oilers kids.

haha, yeah...damn you and your young talent!!

Seen him play several times, he does remind alot of J Eberle but is much stronger than Eberle at same age, (not sure if has Eberle's money player mentality)

Oh he will be, as well as Poirier.

Great write up Colin.. I like this kids mentality. Doesn't let his natural skill get in the way of setting and achieving goals.

He seems to have a very specific plan as to what he wants to improve as we'll.. Nice to hear in comparison to the fluff a lot of players say when asked those questions.

Kid seems focused.. That sits extremely well for the flames going forward.

Some strong reviews on this kid already! He is kind of overlooked right now, everyone talks about Monohan of course, and also the "controversy" about Poirier has kind of stolen the spotlight away from him which could help his development as he doesn't have much pressure IMO. I also like that he has the mentality to try and make the team next year, can't wait to see him at camp and most likely at the World Juniors!

Thanks Dozzer! He certainly has some raw talent to offer this club if he continues to develop as he has been.

Well we can at least this, if we lose games in the future with these kids, they can always challenge the other team to chess afterwards and whoop their un-educated butts. Maybe some debate club stuff.

The trolls don't like hearing about us getting good prospects. But don't worry, we are going to have a lot of drive by hits this year

Question for you, do you think the Flames are done & what we see now is what we are going to see in October? I just don't see any big moves until the TDL, especially when GM's know that their credit card limit is going up the next year. Seems reluctance to pay anything for cap space & taking some tough contracts.
