Providence Bruins General Discussion thread XIX

[Kegs]

Is Ajax something to be excited about? Or are we looking at another Mcmuffin?

Let’s just pencil him in next seasons bruins roster just to be safe.

So, I can tell you that Jonathan Myrenberg played for Sweden today in an exhibition game against Finland and they won 4-0. He will be playing in the rematch tomorrow. This is a warmup for the World Championships next month.

But I have also been informed that the Bruins asked him to come over now and join Providence for the remainder of the season and he turned them down.

My guess is that he wanted to try and make the Swedish roster, but at 20 years of age.... I guess anything can happen.

Any news on the Russian kid who can't sign until May?

Are we still in on him?

 

[BronxBruin]

Notable development. Hopefully the playoffs are a possibility for him.

I don't really understand why a goalie would choose Providence given that we just signed one a couple weeks ago, Svedeback and Dyck are on deck and we already have two goalies Bussi and Dipietro still in Providence. Do we really have opportunities for all of these guys. Even if Ulmark goes it seems like it will be tough to find room for these guys. Ask Keyser.

Was hoping to see Beecher and Lohrei tonight, but I’ll settle for Forbort, it seems.

Well both players are older players (Bischell is 4 months younger than Swayman, and Duplessis is 7 months younger) . Maybe they are just looking for the opportunity to work with what might be the best goalie coching staffs in the business.

Looks like both are only getting AHL contracts, so they would be able to take an NHL opportunity elsewhere later.

That said I wouldn't be surprised if both are at Providence next year, and someone like DiPetro or Bussi gets claimed elsewhere.

We also have no other ideas what offers either might have had

Jonathan was not allowed by his Swedish team LHC to go to US , they start their preseason 22/4 and they want him to participate and they expect him to have a bigger role next year

Providence secured a first round bye with the 4-2 win

Goals by
Merkulov (27) from Tony Dick
Megna (19) from Tony Dick and Merkulov
Duran (2) Brown and Steen
Merkulov (28) Tony Dick and Megna
Bussi 24 saves and another win

Soapbox time
Our guy Merkulov scored 28 goals this year,leads the team in scoring 2 years in a row and the best they can do is 4 games in the bigs?

I feel that if given more opportunity earlier he could really have been an X-factor in the middle 6 likely replacing Lauko. At this time it feels like it would take several injuries for him to even be in consideration this year as a black ace. I think he'll make it but I have no confidence it in the NHL will be in Boston. I almost hoped he'd be traded at the deadline for his own sake.

Georgii never got a real shot.


And I'm still sad over Regula.

 

[BronxBruin]

Megna and Richard were feeling it tonight.
Duran has been really good since being paired with Brown & Steen. That line should stay together for the playoffs.
Walsh cannot be relied on defensively. Yes, he led all defensemen in points but he is a team worse -14 (Callahan is -13...rookie Brunet is +7, Regula +36). In this case, +/- absolutely paints an accurate picture. If he plays in the playoffs (likely), Mougenel should do everything he can to shelter his minutes.

Speaking of the D, it'll be interesting to see how they line up in the playoffs.
Mitchell, Renouf, and Callahan are locks. Walsh is probably a lock. I'm not sure of his ETA but Regula would be a lock if healthy. Does Lohrei get returned to Providence once their series starts? (I hope so). That would leave Brunet as a scratch. McIsaac is the only other D on the roster (minus Forbort who I don't think would be an option).

Are agents going to recommend the Bruins if clients are treated this way?

Merk needs will get his shot next season

I don't think they see him as an NHL Center, which is fine, but i don't know why they aren't trying to develop him as a wing then. Makes no sense to me to have him play as a C down there even if it is his better position.

Put him in a position where he might be able to get a look for the big club

Can only tell you what the player himself and his father told me personally.

Question for you: how do they start their preseason 22/4 when the SHL playoffs aren't over until 27/4 at the earliest?

 

[ODAAT]

he takes quite a bit of heat from some HF`ers but no denying, the PK is better with him on it
