First exhibition game for Lokomotiv in the KHL and more of the same for Roman Bychkov - healthy scratch and Lokomotiv dressed 7 d-men.

I hope he gets a shot with Lokomotiv. I like his nastiness and puck skills. Just needs to learn defence because that's what defencemen do.

One of the more popular topics here a season ago was the Boston Bruins weekly prospect updates. And the hope is that I can bring the same for the 2022-2023 season and in more detail than last seaso…

Here's who I have at the Prospect Challenge so far. I'm surprised @ODAAT hasn't been here talking about Brayden Schuurman yet. Small guy at just 5'9" but man can he shoot the puck. Plays center and right wing.

Hi Dom, I have mentioned him in previous threads, kid is a gamer, as you mentioned, small but is a leader here in Victoria, also as you mentioned, can shoot like nobodies business. Played more C than wing this past year but real fun kid to watch

I wonder if we are all underestimating McLaughlin, a bit

I wonder if we are all underestimating McLaughlin, a bit

not sure if it`s a case of underestimating but more of one that he`s a kid with a small but solid sample size and who knows where he`ll be able to slide in to help? I like him, like him alot, always have time for a hard working player. Kid thinks the game well, still some areas of improvement needed defensively but also feels like he`s a kid always pushing himself to improve

McLaughlin... next DiMaio or something more.? $20 on a DiMaio type career for me.

DiMaio played from like 88-06 (894 games), if McLaughlin plays half as many games it’s a major win for an UDFA signing

Doesn’t strike me to be particularly creative and he isn’t an explosive skater, I have a hard time envisioning him in a top 6 role ever. His shot is terrific and he works his ass off though so I bet he establishes himself as a bottom 6 guy for awhile. And if he doesn’t then it won’t be because of effort.

Stranger things have happened though, maybe he turns into a Knuble-type that can slot up in the lineup as the 3rd guy on a line.

 

[Fenian24]

I would love a couple of Dimaios on this team. Rugged, physical guy who can play 3rd line would fit the bill nicely.

As CDJ mentions DiMaio played almost 900 NHL games, that is a great career especially for a kid like McLaughlin who was a UFA signing.

That'd be gold

I know they need to push content, but what part of this interview does Marinofsky think is "interesting"? 1,000 prospects in the same position have said pretty much the same thing 1,000 times.

I didn't listen to the full interview yet, but ya its pretty generic comments from the clip in the Tweet.

I had the same thought. I would have rather heard about how Fabian is settling in to Boston (has he been training at Warrior? How does his training now compare to previous offseasons? Is he living on his own or with a teammate?) and gauge his attitude on possibly playing in Providence. That would give us a better sense of how he is preparing for the upcoming season. Asking which players he likes and what restaurants he's been to adds nothing of value.

Beecher, Lysell, Lauko and Hall also confirmed for Prospects.

Beautiful! Aiming to be there.

Rookie camp invite James Hardie will return to Mississauga (OHL) for a fifth season. Could still earn an AHL contract and report to Providence. Will need a good camp.
