Prospect Info: The Prospect Thread (Part XXXIV)

Nice start for DiPietro

Reading the spitfires thread is hilarious.

"DiPietro was DiPietro, he made saves he shouldn't have"
"Tonight was the DiPietro show"
"Dipietro, worth the overpriced admission."
"The more I see DiPietro suffocating teams into submission the more I wonder what the future holds for this kid. "
"DiPietro might be the most poised goaltender I've ever seen."

Looks like Kelowna is having quite the game in Prince George. They just tied the game up 5-5

and as I say this PG scores 6-5

There you have it, Lind, scores the game tying goal and the game winner in OT. Also picking up a primary assist on the first Kelowna goal.

That's 13 points in 5 games, 6 goals and 7 assists and he has a point in every game he has played so far.

If I'm getting this right, all his goals have been at even strength.

Sooooo, how many are gonna catch a Giants game when Kelowna comes to town on Nov 18? Looking forward to see Lind’s game up close.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

No way Lind is held off the WJC.

 

[GetFocht]

at this rate DiPietro and Lind should make the WJC

i'm a STH so yes i'll be there

FYI glad we didn't take Rasmussen, was a complete non factor tonight. Thought he would dominate the smaller Giants in his hometown..... he was terrible. No pace, terrible passes and vision, lazy plays, he's a physical specimen and that's it. If he pans out Martin Hanzal 2.0. In the top 10 yikes.
Roman and Byram are players. I absolutely love James Malm this guy brings 110 % every game and why the **** wouldn't we take Ronning he's got game. Valimaki is a nice player.

Funny, I took the kids to the TC game last night and in the first few mins (which included a TC PP) I thought Rasmussen was noticeable with his size and puck skill. He made a nice play that led to the first TC goal and I remember thinking it was gonna be a tough night for the Giants. Then, like you say, he really stopped being a factor after that. Has nice hands and his size and skating is good but plays like lots of 6’5 guys and really coasts around out there. That said, I saw him in preseason with Detroit and he was a totally different player and looked like a young Jeff Carter on the ice.

I think he’ll be a good NHLer but I think he’s kind of a lazy player in the dub.

another goal for palamu

nice goal. pretty scary defence though.

Yeah Liiga is definitely a step below the SHL.

Yeah Liiga is definitely a step below the SHL.

the entire yellow team except the centre looks to be built like rodin.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

at this rate DiPietro and Lind should make the WJC

I still consider Lind a longshot to make WJC. Dipietro should be there and will head into it as the backup but will have a chance to compete for starters spot for.the medal rounds

 

[Ryp37]

Yeah but at least Palamu is easy to spot, in the SHL with a poverty feed half the league is built like Pettersson

 

[WTG]

Gadjovich 2 goals 1 primary assist through 1 period, vs the Windsir Spitfires, DiPietro not starting.

 

[canuckfan75]

Canucks need a Right Shot PP Dman in 1st round

but one more LW with size, skill and grit - love Jackson Leppard of the Prince George Cougars he is from North Vancouver I would be thrilled to get him in the 2nd or 3rd round

Thats where Evander Kane comes in. He's going to be a Canuck next season

 

[GetFocht]

Gadjovich and Lind are having an incredible start to their season. Feels good to have these players in the system

 

[Bad Goalie]

So, Lind is eligible to play in the AHL next season since he turns 20 before December 31 of next season. Is there some European country Benning has decided would be the best place for him to take the next step in his career?

Gadjovich meets the same standard.

 

[WTG]

Lind and Gadjovich are both eligible for the AHL next year right?
