Aaaah, a shiny empty thread to ***** on! I'm going to open with this question; How do we know which scouts are at the B's and Providence B's games and which games are the Bruins "pro" scouts attending from game to game? We need a fan based way to report who is where and watching which players on a given night. I think that it would create more conversation based on facts and not all this "he said, she said" stuff.
I asked Dom about this in the last thread.
Basically theirs no way of knowing unless you're in the media or "in the know". I personally think that info should be made public but Im sure theres a reasonable answer as to why it is not.
why should the info be made public? And in all fairness, I`ve often read in an article an offering from a journalist that states "with scouts from the ____________ in attendance" kind of thing
Can`t speak for NHL barns but at Mooseheads games, there is one particular box/suite that is well known to be reserved for scouts and the odd NHL exec
A few years ago, sat right next to a scout from the Panthers who brought 2 scouts to the game, one to watch from upstairs, one near ice level which was neat. He offered little in the way of opinions on players but he was constantly writing in his "little black book"
I'd like to see this, too. Even though Albert O'Reilly makes a valid point that scouts attendance does not necessarily result in a trade, it would generate interest and make for a cool exchange of ideas.Aaaah, a shiny empty thread to ***** on!

GDTs should list the teams' scouts just below "Milestones: Jimmy Hayes needs two points to reach 100".
Prohockeyrumors.com frequently mentions teams sending scouts to NHL games.

Cant get link to open.
The more time that goes on, the more I think the Bruins are going to stand pat and pin their hopes on their prospect cupboard next year. This year is looking like (another) wash.

Sorry, maybe because I was looking at it on mobile. Want me to delete my post?
