The Old Master

I wanted the pen's to draft scherbak soooo bad. knew he was very raw and would take a while to make the jump. good to see him doing well.

I wonder if the purpose of the original tweet was to shock or confirm what everyone already knew about the Isles' front office.

Guy’s an enforcer isn’t he? That’s not really something quantifiable even in advanced stats. And with Sprong it’s not even comparing apples to oranges, more like apples to lumber.
Enforcers don’t contribute much, but good ones are rare, and therefore worth money & term (to some).

His two tweets are not related. He simply replies to his own previous tweet every time a follower makes a player's stats request. Before Johnston it was Kostin.

I wonder why Bellerive wasn't even listed among the Pens' Top 10 prospects in this year's The Hockey News yearbook.

It was just extra weird that he was left off completely. Even dumb rankings should have seen him listed, but maybe listed way down at 9th or something.

5-Bengtsson (didn't he go back to Europe?)
6-ZAR
7-Johnson
8-Blueger
9-Almari
10-Bjorkqvist
Yes, yes he did. I don't think we retained his rights either. What a very dumb list indeed.

Wasnt drafted...forgot to even put him in the top prospect rankings...
Bellerive with a chip on his shoulder becomes a top 6... 60 point player

Didn't know that. Guess I just assumed that after he came over for a few WBS games late last year that he was here for good. Ah well, there's a bit of a logjam here so he's probably best served playing in Finland this season anyway.
I think a lot of us did, and it wasn't confirmed until fairly late on that he was staying another year (and then quietly).

Sprong has the best shot of all our prospects, but Bellerive's timing is incredible. He's always keep goalies guessing as to when he'll shoot, which is such an underrated factor for goal-scoring. This vid has me pumped about what he'll do this year and beyond:

Woah precise too, combined with that timing factor you mentioned that makes his shot dangerous. No reason that combo shouldn't work at NHL lvl except he'll probably have less time to play the guessing game, sometimes at least. I'm calling this 'The Ninja Shot'.
