WJC thread

Canada vs Russia on NHL network right now.

Jost just scored a sick backhand.

Speers (#21) is on Canada.
Rykov (#28) on Russia, though he's signed long term with the khl.

Much discussed Barzal is #14.

Philly has tons of prospects in the WJC.

Seems like the Jost vs Keller debate was yesterday.

Both highly impressive forwards.

 

[Devils Dominion]

McLeod is #20 if he sees the ice.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Serg scores.

 

[R8Devs]

battle between rykov and speers there

 

[Devils Dominion]

Rykov used on the PP.

Speers on the PK.

 

[Devils Dominion]

McLeod a little pk time

 

[Jersey Fresh]

"Long term" is the next two years for Rykov. Not that long. The question is whether he has any interest in playing here.

I thought it was 3 more seasons under khl contract?

He has looked good so far.
Could use him on our system in Albany or NJ soon.

Nice pick by Castron.

Sucks to watch all these Philly's prospects doing so well and most aren't even high draft picks.

 

[Devils Dominion]

How did Myers go undrafted.

Guess some guys take longer than others.

I just hate having to hear about it every 6 minutes.

Yeah it does, and doesn't even include Konecny and Provorov.

Though some of their heralded picks have stalled a bit. Hagg, Sanheim, Laughton.

A 6'5 dman who skates well should've been drafted even if he wasn't good at all in his draft year. Can't teach size and skating ability...

Flyers had like 50 draft picks in the last two drafts, too. Hextall did very well at trading guys and stockpiling draft picks.

Two 2rd for Timonen's corpse just an incredible job.

Yegor Rykov led all RUS skaters with 7:53 in P1. Blake Speers played 4:13. Michael McLeod played 1:21; was only CAN skater with < 5 shifts.

Yep, its why I've been calling for Shero to continue to stockpile picks.
It's how you do a true rebuild.

Instead of doing that he kept Schlemko just to lose him for nothing... Could've returned something similar to what we got for Stempniak. Those extra picks could've helped him trade back into the first round of 2016 draft like he wanted...

Hope he can get something for PAP and Quincey this season.

Raddysh is soooo good. This kid has a hell of a shot and is pretty skilled.

In before why we didn't draft him instead of Bastian.

I'd like to see McLeod get some ice time here.

Bastian can be a beast if he puts it all together... Tampa is just ridiculous at finding these late round gems.

Love Rykov's poise and skating...

 

[R8Devs]

good showing by rykov and speers there

 

[Devils Dominion]

I really like Chabot.

Ottawa has a good one.

 

[R8Devs]

speers blocked shot on rykov without a stick
