Pittsburgh Penguins Prospects Thread

[Shrimper]

Really debating whether to buy AHL.tv or not...

£61 isn't bad but if most of the game are on when I'm watching Penguins then it is pointless. Saying that, highlight packages etc.

If I could get AHL.tv for monopoly money, I'd for sure buy it too

We got a bright future.. and the only prescription, is more shades.

Not a Pens prospect, but can anyone remember the Finnish player who played college hockey as both a forward and defender? It's bothering me right now that I can't recall his name.

Damnit, I think I know whom you're referring to and now I can't think of it either

edit: Ahti Oksanen?

That's it! Thanks. I knew his last name sounded like an animal [ox].

I had nothing to go off other than getting lucky looking at Jack Eichel's team stats for his one year in college

d’Orio made 54 saves on 58 shots in a loss.. 3rd star. Poor bastard.

He can't do anything to save his shitty team. They should trade him.

@FreeBobbyFarnham thanks for the updates and highlights!

I know most people here want little to do with DK and all his works, but I've gotta say that following Taylor Haase on Twitter is one of the smarter things someone interested in the Pens prospects could do.

Yeah, I second this. I started last night when someone I follow RT her and it’s probably the broadest Pens prospect coverage around. The others I’ve found are usually more WBS based and she posts/finds video clips.


For example. Lauzon update.



Thank god he managed to play some games between months of this problem. Fantastic.

Was it ever confirmed what Lauzon's injury was?

Neck injury iirc.

I enjoy posting them so everyone wins.

Yeah, I’ve only seen it referred to as a neck injury. This might be the most recent reference to it being his neck but I don’t think the Pens have ever mentioned it.



The question is what exactly is wrong with his neck.

Mmm... Drozg's Cataractes starting to turn things around after one of their players declared ''On est écoeuré de perdre!'' (We're fed up with losing!). Since then they've been winning some and are now 5W 9L.

Our Drozg prospect must be related to that new attitude because as i'm writing this he's now: 6G 13A in 14 games but his -12 is a testament to how things were at the start of the season.

Keep on Drozging!

Phillips played top pairing RD for Minnesota last night. No points, but nice to see him being trusted and picking up some versatility.

Drozg has some obvious skills, just not sure what to make of him when I watch him play.

Reminds me a little of Dea, which I guess could be good or bad.

Holy cow I didn't realize he was at 4 points in 3 games already. It's really impressive to see that basically a freshman defenseman is putting up good points and playing high in the lineup.

I was always intrigued with that Phillips pick, to be honest. There was something about that pick that just caught my eye and made me really excited about it.

He needs to work on his skating and shot which aren't NHL lvl yet but he's gonna be a good playmaker for sure. Hope he makes it.

Also, his name rocks! (as in Sex, Drozg & Rock N' Roll)
