Travis Mitchell, Cornell University D (6-3, 207 left shot) moves well for a big guy Brandon Scanlin, University of Nebraska Omaha D (6-4, 213 left shot) one of the top D in College - all situations Bobby Trivigno, University of Massachusetts F (5-8, 162 left shot) Taylor Ward, University of Nebraska Omaha F (6-2, 207 right shot) late bloomer, grew 8 inches at 17yo.

electron58 Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 On 2/7/2022 at 10:49 PM, electron58 said: Jack Eichel is one step closer to making his Vegas Golden Knights debut. Head coach Peter DeBoer announced on Monday that Eichel has been cleared for contact and is getting closer and closer to making his debut. There is still no timetable for his return because as DeBoer noted on Monday, it is the first time he has participated in a full contact practice “in 17 or 18 months.” It is still a noteworthy step in his rehab after undergoing surgery shortly after the trade from the Buffalo Sabres earlier this season. It is encouraging news for the Golden Knights because Eichel’s debut will give them the kind of player they have been lacking in their quest for a Stanley Cup: An elite top-line center. The Golden Knights have had top-tier players on the wing, on defense, and in goal during their first five years in the NHL but they have never really had a player like Eichel to center the top line. That could be a game-changer assuming Eichel is healthy and able to play like he did in Buffalo. As per Las Vegas GM Kelly McCrimmon, Jack Eichel will play Wednesday night against Colorado.

electron58 Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 The Carolina Hurricanes had such little goaltending depth earlier this season that Jack LaFontaine had to be signed in the middle of his college season. Now they’ve pulled off another interesting move, assigning Pyotr Kochetkov back to the AHL’s Chicago Wolves. Kochetkov had been loaned to Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod of the KHL for this season after signing his two-year, entry-level contract last year. He played 23 games there, recording an impressive .926 save percentage but with the recent announcement that following the Olympics the KHL will go directly into the postseason, his year was over.

electron58 Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 Colorado Avalanche star Nathan MacKinnon may be getting a call from the Department of Player Safety in the near future. Vegas Golden Knights forward Nolan Patrick was forced to leave the game against the Avalanche Wednesday after MacKinnon hit him in the head with his shoulder. MacKinnon was given a two-minute minor for interference on the play and remained in the game. The incident is a scary one but becomes worse due to the fact that Patrick has been dealing with head injuries for most of his career.
