Draft and develop our own players. The organization doesn't have enough quality depth to start trading for really good young players. You do that when you're in a position to compete and or when you've built up a sizeable prospect pool.

This.


Find some fill ins along the way. Whether we draft top 5 or 25 just can't afford another 3rd liner with a high pick like Virtanen.(I am a fan of his style of play).

I'm not in New Zealand I'm in my basement, working and watching live.

edit: ENG vs SCO kicks off in 1 min.

I'd like to see him do more. Be more assertive.

Knights have a lot of injuries maybe playing it safe. Hes smooth as silk not much to not like about him.

there developing virt to be more than a 3rd liner, hes playing well from all reports in his attention to detail goals will come, lets face it in junior he just outmuscled everyone to be successful so hes pretty raw but hes learning and coming along.

Nothing, and I mean nothing, is better that a good hotdog my friend!!! With cold beer of course.

Speaking of beer, the Ms. and I are going Kawanis Ale fest tonight. Dozens of craft brewers and local restaurants having a to do. Going to be a good time of food and beers.

Hope he turns out as a top.6. I am not writing him off yet, usually I give a player.until 22-23 before I do that.
Was just figuring that at this stage of development, he is equivalent to a 3rd/4th liner & may not improve from that. Also, we will need some luck for some of our picks to turn out as top 6 players.
Bo has proved many wrong, hopefully Virtanen can as well.

Knights only had half a line up tonight and still beat a team on a 15 game win streak. London had a 16 year old goalie in for the last half.

I like OJ's game, I just think that he could be one of the best D in the game compared to just a good one.

Hope he turns out as a top.6. I am not writing him off yet, usually I give a player.until 22-23 before I do that.

What's up with Evan McEneny? He had 2 points through 23 games and now 7 in the last 10. Another goal tonight.

Never understood why they don't wear helmets doing the fastest skater contest.

Even doing the accuracy shot. Guys passing the puck don't have helmets on. Puck off post would hit them in a hurry.

My beef is with not having the best at each event there ...if some plug can shoot 110 I want him there over Laine or whoever

I don't like the players letting the kids shoot like that, Kesler and his kid , Calgary and their kid? Who is the dad of that little guy 13?
