As we all thought, Luongo is out for an extended period of time.

Lower body, tough to come back at 38. Feel bad for the guy.

20 year old overager playing in a lower-tier junior league and all he can muster up is a single point in 17 games

That was definitely Charles Wang meddling in the draft and demanding we piss away a pick (no matter how late in the draft it was) on him I love that they took him in the 6th round, as if anyone was going to jump on him before the 7th round

Well his points ect suck but the ushl is the only tier 1 junior league in the US. Nahl is tier 2 and any other junior league is tier 3. All of them are now junior a as the did away with the b and c levels they are now in tiers. The usphl top level the ncdc is also very good like d1 level players but it's now aau. I say that cause i ref some but the ushl regularly puts out nhl guys its similar to major junior in Canada full ride kids don't pay however they can go to college if they play there first

No, I know that he USHL is the top junior league in the US. Had a few friends play there. But I'm just saying compared to Canadian Major Junior and Junior A, the USHL is pretty inferior and it's kinda weak to see an overager put up a single point over 17 games, despite being so much more physically mature than the guys he's playing against.

its second to major junior in canada most kids that play there go d1. there are a lot of nhl players that played there too. I wouldnt say its pretty inferior as a ton of kids are being drafted out of college now and very high and they all played in the ushl first

anyone see on the main page the hotstove on who wll win the metro? one guy had devils and bj the the others had bj or pens or rangers and even threw in carolina ................not one mention of isles. if the isles were to go after a goalie maybe anahiem would be a place to go with gibson and miller as back up. miller has played great this year and they are hurt and could use some forwards. send them halak and make miller the starter?

look at the players that came out of the ushl they are elite now remember the us development team is considered a ushl team that plays the teams in the league but you are talking eichal matthews hanafin proverov keller ect all 1srt rounders

http://www.ushl.com/nhldraft

7 players drafted in the 1st round this year 10 last year that played there it is on par with major jr. looking at just the first rounders over the last 9 years there are big time nhl guys there and justin faulk was a 2nd rounder

Where will jt go? Look at him in ranger jersey
http://www.espn.com/espn/...gn-2018-free-agent-market

Looking at average save percentage by team, #Isles rank 28th in low danger SV%, 13th at medium danger, 27th at high danger.

In short: not good.

Horvat having an MRI today to determine how long he's going to be out after suffering an injury recently.

If VAN falls down the standings, Gudbranson is a RHD that I would consider looking into as a trade-deadline rental for the third pairing. He's no star, but I recall him having a decent series against the Islanders two years ago.

I don't love him, but if we really need to have a big, mean guy playing third pairing minutes...he's exponentially more competent than Mayfield. Can't imagine he'd cost much, unless there were a ton of teams beating down VAN's door for him and the price was driven up by market demand.
