Turnover king Yeah, he really forces things sometimes. He is always looking for the great play and sometimes misses the merely good play and turns it over instead. He definitely needs to get stronger, shoot more, and figure out when to make the safe play vs when to go for greatness. 21 years old. 41 NHL games played. He’ll be fine. I get a distinct Tim Connolly vibe from him. Edited March 19, 2022 by Curt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks. Those players always were going to be ready for the NHL in 2024 at the very earliest. So in 2024 or 2025 we’ll see what the situation is with whether players can come over from Russia or not. A lot can change in 3 years, so not much sense in getting too worried about it right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks. I will take the contrarian view here. It’s no secret that we have scouts working for us in Russia. Now is the time to draft more. I’m sure we can get higher value than last year. Buy low. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Utah Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 (edited) On 3/18/2022 at 11:03 PM, French Collection said: Josh Bloom with 1A and +2 in a loss to the London Knights. Played wing 0/1 on draws. Olivier Nadeau is shut out and goes -1 vs Sherbrooke. He is a RW but took 16 draws, winning 12. He was actually a +3 but lost one when the coach decided to pull the goalie when down by two. London scored an empty netter almost immediately. It has got to be frustrating when you are effectively a +3 and your Team still loses by 3 but I guess that is what happens when you play on the 20th place Team in a 20 Team league. Even the Sabres aren't dead last !! I'm shocked that he is still pretty much a point a game player 50+ games into the season.
