In the System Part V (Preds Prospect/Minor League Talk)

[Scoresberg]

Dougherty and Gortz are basically throwaway prospects. Aberg and Arvidsson, for example, are both considerably higher upside guys.

Yeah, they are but Gortz is tearing it up in AHL and has no value. I like what I'm seeing from Dougherty in the WHL and D's usually take longer to develop. Also, we don't have any other D prospects and he carries no value.

As for the two Swedes they have value but I highly doubt Aberg' going to be anything. Same with Arvidsson. But the difference between them they actually have value so they could be used in a trade. + If Vesey joins us we are overloaded on the wings.

Dougherty is not a throw away prospect.

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

That can't be..... He's a terrible goalie, probably the worst in all of hockey.

Since I made that post, he's saved 100 of 103 shots raising his save % from .901 to .916.

Perhaps I can work my magic on some Preds players.

Dougherty is not a throw away prospect.

He was bad at Wisconsin..granted, the program is in shambles, but in his first year as an old junior, those in Portland I've talked to have said "decent offensive defenseman, needs serious help defensively."

I'd be surprised if he ends up in the NHL. He was a high a draft pick that isn't on a good growth trajectory at the moment.

Wilson has been playing fine lately. Even when he doesn't get the results.

I think Smith, Jones, Jackman, and our bottom 6 is what needs to step it up

There was a comment on NBC sports the other night about Wilson. They asked Laviolette about Wilson and he said he was doing all the right things, just not getting the results and that he was happy with his overall play. Just a little FYI.

He certainly has over the last several weeks.

Kamenev's Russia won their group and face Denmark in the quarterfinals tomorrow. TSN's Button listed the best players in the group stage and Kamenev was on that list. Kamenev cleaning up good.

I don't know about Doughtery. I haven't seen him on TV since his Wisconsin days. I was not impressed by him or the team during his tenure in Madison.

I would say that you have the other three flipped around. I have seen about 12 Admirals games in person this season and about 20 last season. Aberg isn't doing as well this year in the AHL. Gortz has caught fire. In the recent 3-0 victory, Gortz had 1G and 2A, so he was involved in all of the goals scored by Milwaukee.

BTW, Max Reinhart leads Milwaukee with 10 goals so far.

 

[Scoresberg]

Just for Kamenev' sake we could draft his linemate from the WJC's RW Maxim Lazarev. Small winger who is fast and has silky mitts. Could see him go like 3rd/4th round. They have a great chemistry. Also, Lazarev is playing in the Q so he wouldn't have to adjust to small rink anymore.

 

[Scoresberg]

Kamenev's faceoffs in the tournament:

37 taken
22 won
62.71 %

 

[Scoresberg]

Kamenev again with a goal. Tied it 3-3 with 50seconds left.

 

[I Will Son]

And he scored the OT winner. BEAST

 

[King Weber]

2 big goals for Kamenev.

I like it.

 

[Scoresberg]

Kamenev scores on the doorstep to lead Russia to Semis. Clutch.

 

[jusu11]

Kamenev is awesome! I think he won every faceoff in the 3rd period and OT. Really pleased to see him have such a good tournament with Russia and moving on to the next round!

 

[EdwardTK]

When I have looked at Russia's games in this tournament I'm really happy with what I've seen. Kamenev is really responsible, dominating faceoffs, rotates PP also he is a good front of the goal.

I agree with you my only fear is that he becomes "too" responsible and we waste his offensive potential and turn him into a 3rd line defensive machine.

Guess I'll be setting my DVR. Enjoy the game.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

Hey guys! Can anyone give me a scouting report in Novak? He's doing really well as a freshman 12 points in 16 games!

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

Can't say enough about Saros. He's so calm and positionally sound. He won the game for the Ads tonight who looked like they were sleepwalking throughout pretty much the whole game but especially the first 5 minutes of the 1st period and the entire 3rd period.


The Diaby/Nakyva defense pairing was a disaster tonight. They must have spent 2 minutes straight in the defensive zone. Couldn't even clear the puck out, much less clear it out far enough to get a change.

Heard several boos for Ryan Suter when they showed him on the jumbotron of former Admirals players. Thought you guys might like that.

Fiala still needs to work on hustling as he floats a bit but he's so much better than he was at the beginning of the year and he's typically the most talented player on the ice and he showed that tonight with some good stick handling to keep the puck in the offensive zone several times.
