Summer tourneys are happening.

The World Junior Summer Showcase is happening in Michigan.

We have have recent draftees participating.

Finland
Aleksi Heimosalmi D (44th OA). He has 1 assist in 4 games, 3 SOG, 4 PIM an is -3. His minus three rating is from one game against USA Blue in a 7-6 win so its seems like one bad game.

Finland is 4-0. They have scored 18 goals and allowed 12.

Promising showing from Morrow so far.

Promising showing from Morrow so far.

so I found some highlights on youtube.



go to 2:10. Morrow carries the puck threw the neutral zone, uses the defender as a screen, and shoots a nasty wrister past the goalie. The kid is smooth

3:50 USA is on the PP. Look where Morrow is when the goal is scored. Im not sure the Canes are going to let him do that.



1:55. Morrow carries the puck and makes a nice pass through the middle of the ice to find the winger who eventually stuffs it home

 

[dogbazinho]

Thanks for this. Good info.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Whenever he does something beneficial on the ice we can say "Good Morrow" and pretend we're high society.

Isn’t the often maligned Raaty or however it’s spelled crushing it at this tourney?

 

[Daeavorn]

Yeah he scored 4 goals in his first game after being drafted.

Raty is the leading scorer. His original ballooning hype started because he dominated his peers.

It like a led balloon as soon as his short falls were made clear against men.

I think there’s a pretty good chance that kid still ends up being a player.

He's got away on his talent this far, but his skating is about to reveal an unsurpassable hindrance.

Any minute now.

I guess USA players are switching teams.

Morrow played for USA White today vs Finland. He had an assist, 4 SOGs, and +2

USA won 5-4

Heimosalmi didn’t record a stat but was -1
Koivunen had 4 shots and was -1

USA Blue won 3-1

Hreschuk had zeros across the board

Nybeck had 2 SOGs and -1
Nystrom didn’t play

 

[spockBokk]

Nice pass:

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Morrow is going to be Gardiner…errr really awesome!

 

[bleedgreen]

Raaty with another nice one.

I’m rooting for this kid. Draft prognosticators have gotten pretty arrogant and obnoxious the last few years. Generally I’m fine with that kind of behavior but watching teams pat themselves on the back for not taking this kid really stood out. Some of our people doing it here bragging about the guy we took over him.

Be a stud kid.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Sweden was winless going into the last but no more. They whooped USA White 7-1.

Nybeck had 2 goals and an assist +4, 5 SOGs
Nystrom had a SOG and +4.

Hreshuk -2

Finland wrapped up their dominant performance of the tournament with a 4-1 win over USA Blue.

Morrow was -1.

Heimosalmi was +1
Koivunen had an assist and was +1

Man, does Jarvis have the “death stare” down…those eyes be scary (watch the video and try not to be a bit freaked out):

Freaky. Deep set, black as shit pupils going on. Possible spawn of the Addams family - most likely Lurch.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Cool story about our 6th round pick Montgomery.

Hurricanes drafted a defenseman they’d barely seen play. His story speaks for itself

Interesting snippet at the end , "For now, Bryce Montgomery is gearing up for the 2021-22 season with London in the OHL. He said he would attend a rookie camp and rookie tournament with the Canes in Tampa, Florida, in September."

This is the first I've heard about this, does anyone have any more info? I was under the impression that there was no rookie camp this year. I wonder who all was invited and if it's a tournament against other team's prospects

It is much like Traverse City. We played in that tournament once when it was hosted in Nashville in 2019. Now its Tampa’s turn. Probably cheaper to have them travel once to Tampa, have camp there, and then do the tournament versus paying for everyone to travel into Raleigh and then into Tampa as well.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I think it was Darren Yorke on the Canes Cast that made it sound like they will still be doing a summer version of the rookie camp, but perhaps it will be all virtual? I'd assume they hope to get that back to normal next year, but we'll see where the world is.

As for the Tampa tourney, it does make sense that they'd take as many of the guys that will already be in NA as possible and do what was supposed to be the regularly scheduled fall prospect tourney.
