Commandant Posted February 14, 2019 Author Posted February 14, 2019 Not sure what is going on, if he's not finding chemistry in the new team, or if he's playing with some sort of injury, but something is happening there. He's still talented enough that I'm not too worried about it. Quote

He was better than last year's pace before the last 17 games. I'm not sure whats happened there but he doesn't look the same as he did in Owen sound, or even in his first 4 or 5 games in guelph.

DON Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 1-0 game, Brook 1a, start of 3rd * kinda hoping to hear Suzuki has been playing through injury for last while. In one 9-0 game recently, he gets all of 1a? Quote
DON Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Brook 1g (14) 1a in 3-2 loss http://whl.ca/video/highlights-oil-kings-3-at-warriors-2 14g 57pts 44gms: 3rd in d-scoring, 2nd pts/gm 1.30 Quote
Commandant Posted February 15, 2019 Author Posted February 15, 2019 Brook with 1g 1a last night Houde with 1g Today, Ikonen has a goal...4g in 10games this year. Quote
Commandant Posted February 15, 2019 Author Posted February 15, 2019 Ikonen adds a second goal, to get him to 5g in 10 games. Ylonen also has a big day with 2g, 1a. Romanov also picks up an assist today (and goes +2 in a season high 19:24 of ice time in the KHL) Quote

In rumour thread i posted tweet about it. But, i havent seen Puljujarvi play...how do you see him down the road, another Armia? Although another RW likely not a fit or need for Habs. Would a herd of Finns on his team maybe help his play? Or Oilers likely want too much for him anyways?) Quote
JoeLassister Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 I remember Puljujarvi at the WJ with Laine. He was playing damn good along with the sniper. I never thought he would fail to pan out as it is right now in Edmonton. Looked like he had all the tools. Dunno about his hockey IQ and his ability to adapt to NHL hockey though. Haven't watch Oilers game enough to tell. Quote
Commandant Posted February 15, 2019 Author Posted February 15, 2019 If Puljujarvi ends up as another Armia, I think that would be very disappointing given his upside. As a junior player he was dominant in puck protection, with the ability to play a power game, take the puck to the net and score goals, he was also a very good passer. I don't know why, but he just doesn't seem to be developping in Edmonton. Still just 20, he might be worth the gamble depending on how much it costs. Look at Dylan Strome, he was written off as a bust, and Arizona gave up on him. He has 31 points in 34 games with Chicago. On the other hand there is the Nail Yakupov and two changes of scenery didn't help him. So he could be worth taking a gamble on, but the question is how much it would cost. Quote
Commandant Posted February 16, 2019 Author Posted February 16, 2019 Houde 1a McShane 1a Suzuki 2a Tyszka 1a Primeau, 1 goal on 33 shots Quote
DON Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 Olofsson, Ylonen no pts Ikonen 1a...8points in 11games! darn good "start" to season. Quote

Commandant Posted February 17, 2019 Author Posted February 17, 2019 McShane with 1g Teasdale 1a Brook 1a Fonstad 1a Tyszka 1g. Gwg Walford 2a Primeau 23/24 saves Quote
DON Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Teasdale 34th goal (11pts in last 10gms, equals last years 65pts) Tyszka 1a (4pts in last 3 games) Just took a look and see Josh Brook is 1st in CHL d-man pts/gm. Quote
DON Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Guelph up 4-3, Suzuki -1 no points yet. Romanov in 6-1 win, no pts. His team is winning alot, 51-9-0. McShane 6 shots, no points yet in a 2-1 game. Quote
Commandant Posted February 18, 2019 Author Posted February 18, 2019 Suzuki gets an assist on the OT winner Fonstad 1a, Brook no points (that game is in the third period) Walford 1a (also in the third period) Quote
Commandant Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 Brook picks up an assist as Moose Jaw scores three unanswered goals, but Prince George still wins 4-3. Walford picks up a second assist (but his team is down 5-2) Quote
dlbalr Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Jacob Olofsson has signed a two-year deal with Skellefteå of the SHL that will begin next season. Quote
Commandant Posted February 20, 2019 Author Posted February 20, 2019 Walford picked up another assist last night. He now has nine goals and 44 points in 55 games. I think any questions as to whether or not he will be getting a contract offer this spring have been answered. The Habs have to sign him. Quote

Or "most likely" we should expect a similar ceiling for him? Quote

That does not mean they are meant for the same finish though, Ellis didn't develop in the AHL, Walford might (especially since our coaching is better). Walford is also a better skater which is big with the way the game has gone. 1 Quote

I'm calling it now: the Habs' entire 2017 draft class ends up with ELC's. Quote
