Benson and Samorukov are playing tonight for the Condors. Yamamoto not going be assigned to Bakersfield due to injury.
Nice. Hopefully Kailer's injury is a quick healing one.

Samorukov especially will be a welcome addition, the Condors finished their last game with only 3 or 4 dmen. Excited to see how these guys do in the pros!Benson and Samorukov are playing tonight for the Condors. Yamamoto not going be assigned to Bakersfield due to injury.
Kind of expected Yamamoto to be too injured to go. He was clearly a long way from 100% in that series.
Wonder why no Hebig? The mem cup is a long way off.
Was at the game tonight against the moose. Chances for and against were pretty even it seemed. Broissoit definitely didn't invoke confidence for the team.
Benson was by far the slowest player on the ice. Very disappointed in how he looked . I'm hoping he is nursing and injury or was tenative because it was his first ahl game. He doesnt look close to the NHL to me.
Safin had a pretty uneventful game as well. Looked skinny compared to the other players. Could definitely use another 20-30 pounds before he is an option on the nhl team.
Samorukov looked good to me .Willing to hold onto the puck for the extra split second to wait for the lanes to open up .Quick hands and had an eye for openings . Could see him suit up for the oil in the near future .
Most impressive condor to me was Caleb Jones . Great hands, vision, skating, defensive stick/positioning . Truly a 5 star prospect . The only thing he needs more work on is his decision making .Sometimes you could see him trying for force plays out there.
Gambardella, Lelaggia and Polei had good games and I wouldn't be shocked to see them play some NHL games in the near future
Benson has a whole offseason to work on his skating for a change. We should see improvement come September. Safin has cooled off after a quick start, another year in the Q is likely. What were your thoughts on Vessel? Good to hear that Jones looked good for the most part. Brossoit was 2nd star btw which is interesting given the score.
I'll be in the minority here and may get slammed but I think Jones is a better long-term prospect than Bear. Right or wrong we have two great looking kids.
Before the season started most of the posters here would have taken Jones over Bear.
Jones could be making that 4 year deal to Russell look even worse as early as next year.
The thing with Benson could also have to do with his conditioning .He has played nearly the same amount of games as the 2 previous seasons combined. Legs could be running out of gas .
Vesel seemed to have good wheels and hands. Looked more deserving of a two way contract over a guy like Christoffer or Larkin.
Pretty tough to get a good read on alot of these prospects after the one game though. I'll be back again on Sunday with hopefully a better viewing.

Maybe, but he has never looked like a high end skater IMO. It's hard to work on your skating when you're nursing groin issues.
I wouldn't mind if we signed Vesel, it sounds like he's done at least ok so far in Bako. What were your thoughts on Larkin and Day?
You would not be able to tell he is Dylan's brother if it wasn't for the name tag . Dont remember him making any plays to stand out .Good or bad. Day also slipped my radar .Saw him out there a couple times but wasn't keying in on him.
Is Larkin a decent skater at this level?

I highly doubt that Jones, or Bear, will be ready for actual playing time in meaningful games by next year. They will both be injury-callups and that is it.
Like everything I’ve seen and read about Samorukov so far. Kids gonna be a player.
Back in the OHL hopefully. Guelph's 1999s look like they might be able to put a competitive team together next year.Is he eligible for the AHL next year or is it back to the OHL?
