Hopefully he rewards those scouts by getting them a few extra picks.

We'd like that to happen. For me they don't all have to even be in the upcoming draft.

I don't like how they are using him, he's much better than a 7th D-man.........if that's how they saw him, it may have been best to just not bring him,
- ob18


I don't know. Even in the early games when he was taking regular shifts he was standing out from the rest and not in a good way

Maybe true but 20 to 30 minutes a game to maybe 6 here........even if it's representing his country it can not be a total joy.
- ob18


Yeah, but he just needs to soak it in and learn from it.

We're talking about a couple of weeks. Tournament is about to be over. He'll be back in Rimouski for the next few months then maybe get a cup of coffee in the NHL or AHL to finish the year.

I thought for sure Hickets would be the odd man out as it's gone on but that hasn't happened.

Maybe, maybe not his Rimouski team right now is near the top of the Q standings & hopefully make a long playoff run.

AHL, even if the Flyers are playing out the string, Morin is 4th or 5th on the list of guys I get NHL time right now.

Thats true. That'd be good for him too though.

It'd be nice to see him make a run at a Q title & have a shot at the Memorial Cup.

Good things going for him is he's always wanting to learn & improve but most importantly his is one confident kid.
- ob18


I Like how he took a shot at Tyler Myers saying he doesn't want to end up like him. becoming a top 4 dman is not the path he wants to go down

Whys that? If he's available for the last 3-4 games, you wouldn't use him over guys like Ghost or Hagg?

Nope.

I like Sanheim and Hagg more, and I'm not sure on Ghost.

I'd agree, Ghost has the ability but just not 100% sure.

I guess Sanheim makes sense. I would play Morin over Hagg though.

In the Phantoms games, he's still really shaky in his own end. I actually think Morin is more suited for the NHL at this point.

He is, I still think he's further along than Morin.

Can Sanheim get games this year? Doesn't he have another year of Juniors?

Watching them both today, I would put Morin ahead of Hagg.

Did Ghost being a bit tentative in his brief NHL appearance give you pause?

It did for me, even if it was a very small sample size. I think I would have preferred for him to go full on Mike Green in his small stint with the big club.

I'd leave Sanheim be, but that's just me.
