Cap City Summer Elite League

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

I'm just happy there's live streams for these, and that's a good excuse to post the live YouTube links:

Week 3 Battery Hockey Academy vs High Bank Distillery (going live in 60 minutes from this post)
614 Hockey vs Bladetech Hockey (going live in 2h 45 minutes from this post I think)

Edit: Hehe Atkinson on a breakaway in the first period and slaps a bomb for a 3-2 Battery lead. Nice goal.

Hangover probably

Hangover probably

Do you think?

My wife and I had a nice time at the games today. We left with about 5 minutes left in the second game. I just gotta say, the score was 12-3 and the team with 12 had one NHLer and the team with 3 had four NHLers.

Ben Kraws was really good in goal today for 614 Hockey (up until the time we left).

This is why you have children and teach them to play hockey. My son went to the almost made it pro/osu sale today and picked me up a whiskey warrior c meyer 72 jersey without me asking while I kissed up to my wife and took her out.

The jersey is to nice and sharp white to play in, this bad boy is penciled in for opening night!

614 hockey wins the 1st annual Cap city tournament in ot against the Battery (who in typical battery fashion added a player for the championship game!)

I was in our town so I couldn't watch the game before. So I will watch tomorrow (here already tomorrow). Although Cole Sillinger - 10 points.

The final - it was one man show. Patrik Laine. Although I am not sure he played at a high 30%. But if honestly, I liked how he played in defensive and forcheking more.

I don't know, either Kuraly isn't in ideal shape yet, or his hockey IQ is average at best. In fact, there were not one, but 2 minor leaguers in the line.

Roslovic - not so much dangerous passes, chances. But I could be wrong, that team had pretty stupid marking numbers and his shape can be bad.

I liked Danforth, I would never say it was his first game. He is a real warrior. Someone should explain to him that it wasn't an NHL game.

I didn't expect anything from Atkinson, missing the season is bound to show.

The Battery goalie played like God. If not for him, this team could have lost big.

EDIT: But I liked Jack in other games what I watched.

I think Danford is one of the most unappreciated/underrated players on the Blue Jackets Roster. It’s likely Babcock will like his game.

The problem is we have too much players.

That will be a problem for the many players that aren't as good as Danforth.

People are sleeping on Danforth but he's the type of player Babcock loves to work with on top of his drive. I wouldn't be shocked at all if Babcock puts Fantilli and Danforth on the 3rd line opening day as Danforth would be the perfect wingman to help Fantilli start his career before heading up the line charts.

Danforth on a line with Fantilli gives him an upgraded Brindley. Danforth has better offensive tools and tenacious like Brindley.

I am a Danforth fan.

xxx - Fantilli -- Danforth

and next how?

I think Voronkov is ideal to skill, but not so tough, agressive players. I would put Jenner there but Boone is already not so fast.

Texier might be a good fit, then. He's tough and fast and has the skill to keep up.

I'm not as high on Danforth as apparently a lot of us are, but I think this (Texier) is the correct answer to the question at hand.

I think I like the idea of Texier with Fantilli as a start and then who's on the other side. If Danforth earns it, fine by me. But the fan me who isn't at practice and comes with my own personal preferences and biases probably wouldn't automatically put him there, I'd look for someone else.

That said, this all feels a lot like a discussion for the Offseason GM thread. Then again, we're talking about whether or not we should extend Ivan Provorov in two years in the prospects thread, so... welcome to late summer in HFCBJ-land.

It would be interesting who in the TOP 6. Gaudreau, Laine, Johnson, Marchenko and still two players. Maybe instead of Texier Chinakhov.
Simply, the camp all shows.

I agree, but it's hard to pay mind to a 4th line player who missed 90+ percent of the season.

I am trying to figure out how to get a Nicklas Backstrom discussion going in the Texier thread.
