Ah yes, the classic Vorobyev to early 80s Memphis transition. What in the world happened in here? :laugh:
What are you? Some egg-sucklng dog? Don't ruin the vibe.

On-topic: If Sam Morin turns out to be the NHL equivalent of Mike Rotunda, we'll all be satisfied with the draft pick and slower than expected promotion to the big club.

I’m sure you meant the WWF or Varsity Club version, but now I really want to hear @Captain Dave Poulin explain someone dressing like this.

Obviously, this guy - like myself - grew up on reruns of "Gilligan's Island" - unlike me, however, that led this guy into complete over-the-top America's Cup fandom. He quite clearly bought himself a boat as a result, which we all know is a good way to lose your money. Losing your cocaine habit is less easy, apparently, and it's a very slippery slope from Gilligan to America's Cup to boat ownership to cocaine addiction to jumping into the ring at wrestling events.

I clicked 'like' for this post but I have no idea why.

It makes better sense for the drafted kids to go there right after the draft, than to delay it till July.
I wonder if that's the reason they did it.

Although I believe the Flyers always held their camp very late compared to every other team.

I think Hextall is probably on the fence, and the decision will depend on three factors;
1) how much strength Frost can add this summer, not so much bulking up but just naturally getting stronger with good training
2) who they sign/trade for this offseason, a top 3C makes the decision easier
3) how Frost looks in camp v Vorobyev, Bardreau, MV and Knight, he'll lose all ties, if he's not clearly superior, back to juniors.

I don't think there's much doubt that Frost will be a top 6 center, the only question is when, Ron won't keep him unless he's going to play 12-14 minutes a night as the 3C, but if he goes back to juniors, write him in as the starting 3C in 2019-20. Given his skill set, I don't think they have any interest in playing him at wing, he's much more valuable as a C.
