Hopefully Studnicka won’t get 3rd n 4th line minutes in the AHL.

I really hope Studnicka can transition this level of play to the NHL. He seems like a solid center prospect that could make an immediate impact.

Although the fastest path to Boston for him with 3 centers in place for next year, might be at RW

 

[Mick Riddleton]

Such a beauty move there. Can't believe that didn't go in. The speed, and hands on display here, holy moly.

He reminds me of how JDB played an all around game in Junior.His compete level and wearing a letter shows leadership. I will trust in what Dom says about him and other scouts over anything else I hear on here.

played well in his short AHL stint last season IIRC

I had Studnicka being the darkhorse to make the roster out of camp this year and was wrong. But I also have him being that for next season.

So many people writing him off. But people forget just how young he still is.

Of the top-200 scorers in the AHL he is the 18th youngest player.

Craig Button seems to think pretty highly of Studnicka.

I remember he had a hell of a pre-season right after he was drafted. I try not to get overly hyped about prospects, but Studnicka gets me excited.

Wasn't talking about Studnicka

I wonder if we'll finally see him get his taste next year.

 

[EverettMike]

Senyshyn will make the team next year book it.

You had me book that for this season.

 

[mikelvl]

You had me book that for this season.

I’m pretty sure ‘The Don’s’ great great grandfather picked the South to win the Civil War...

Agreed. One way to put Senyshyn's AHL performance into context is to look at how his former Soo teammates have performed. People thought Blake Speers carried Senyshyn, but he has 8 points in 43 games in the AHL. Bobby Mcyntire, outscored Senyshyn in the Zoo, but has 15 points in 38 games in the AHL after spending last year in the ECHL. Boris Katchouk, who was perhaps considered the best pro prospect of all has 18 points in 52 games.

The AHL is a hard league, and it is common for very young players to be ordinary and still go on the NHL careers.

I posted this in another thread in defense of Urho Vaakanainen. A fellow Bruins fan didn't believe that we had any A level prospects in the system. I think Vaakanainen is our crown jewel. Here is what I wrote. I wonder who else is as excited a I am about Vaak.

Here is a quote from Eric Perrin, who has played about 1000 games in Finland's Liga as well as nearly 245 games in the NHL. Perrin's team faced Vaakanainen's in the playoffs last year.

“He was their best defenseman by far,” Perrin said. “I just remember [him] always being on the ice, doing really good things and that stands out to me. … These little things that we know, usually you say to your guys ‘get on their D, they’re having a hard time.’ But he wasn’t one of those guys that we were talking about. It was other guys. So we knew we had to kind of more keep an eye on him, because he joined the rush, things like that, that we had to stay aware about him at all times.

“He was reliable both sides of the ice. It wasn’t just offensively, he did a pretty good job as a young guy. Maybe physically not all the way developed yet, but he had a really good effort on defense as well,” added Perrin. “He has all the tools, that’s for sure,”

So, think about it. Vaakanainen emerged as a top pairing defenseman for SaiPa Lappeenranta at age 18. He was playing an average of 23 minutes a night. He was also a top-pairing defenseman for Finland at the World Juniors. Maybe he won't be Erik Karlsson or Brent Burns...but I see shades of Teppo Numminen.

Numminen is probably the most underrated defenseman in NHL history!

Put Vaakanainen next to McAvoy on the top-pairing and let them go. It would be the perfect pairing - like wine and cheese!

All-time great post right here.

Jeremy Swayman had a great weekend against BC as Maine swept up in Orono. By all accounts he's had another solid year up north.



He could be a real important prospect - might be coming down the prospect pike as Tuukka runs out of gas.

Great another college player. Probably soft as puppy poo, and doesn't fight at all. Whats his PIM this season ?

Since you have no clue what position he plays, he is a goalie.

Wow, this ain't it chief.

I'm going to go way out on a limb here and say, it's possible that he/she/they were being sarcastic.

Ha, I should have used a just kidding emoji. I knew he was a goalie. There are some here who are against College players. I guess if you have to explain it, it ain't funny.

Linus arnesson seems to be showing a little offensive development this year over in Sweden. Has more goals than he had his entire career combined (5) and has a career high in assists (6)

What’s the deal with him? Do we still have his rights? I forgot he existed
