Can anyone else see Marody, Benson and Mcleod in the lineup next season? And Bouchard + Jones on D?
Marody needs to work on his skating, McLeod is a guy that I'd like to give at least a year in the AHL to work on offense before he gets pidgeonholed into a checking center due to his size and speed.
IMO Jones-Bouchard will be our 3rd pairing to start next season.
I agree, especially with how things are looking in Bako I would definitely want him down there next season. But I can see our staff and management rushing him like you said.
Adding Maksimov, McLeod, and a healthy Safin would bolster our team even more. Then add in guys like Samorukov, Persson, etc. and suddenly we have a damn good farm team.
Yup and Woodcroft seems to be doing well coaching them. That would be a top tier AHL team.
Jones - Bouchard would be an interesting bottom pairing. But with a healthy Klef, Lars, Nurse and Russel I could see them doing well. Ala the Flames bottom pairing of Valimaki/Kylington - Andersson.
Our farm team should be top notch next year. I’m excited.Adding Maksimov, McLeod, and a healthy Safin would bolster our team even more. Then add in guys like Samorukov, Persson, etc. and suddenly we have a damn good farm team.
Don’t watch much OHL but looking at the stats looks like maksimov took a big step up this year including 3rd in OHL pp goals. Pretty excited to have a potentionally elite first shot scorer in the system. Anyone have any insight into his game this year? Is he legit? NHL comparables? Major holes?

I'm an Ice Dogs season ticket holder. His game has been improving every year. There are still things to work on, like his boneheaded penalties in the offensive zone, and I still question if his game can translate well at the NHL level, but based on where we drafted him, he's a heck of a prospect! I'm excited to see how he transitions to the AHL next season.

Agreed. It’s nice to have the updates of all our prospects in one place.@dem
I for one really appreciate what Oilers ‘72 does on here. I live in NS so it’s great to know how are other prospects are doing out there and to see what we have. When I open up HF Boards, I always read his blogs. He does an excellent job! Keep up the great work !
Hopefully Saifin is playing today so I can generate a blog after the Mooseheads game
Good to see we got some good ones coming. Maksimov had a great camp 2 years ago, not so good last year. They had him playing on a 3 rd and 4th lineAgreed. It’s nice to have the updates of all our prospects in one place.
What's his skating like? He's never come across as a speedster in rookie games by my eye.
