Jesus Christ Casey. Give the poor kid a chance.

I called Glotov's name after the game and he smiled and waved at me so that was nice.

 

[MackAttack26]

Good: Dahlin, Mittelstadt, Guhle, Asplund, Pilut, Olofsson, Glotov, Oglevie, Pekar.

Also liked Biro, Shepard, Snively, Aquin of the invitees/lesser known names.

 

[sincerity0]

Mittelstadt was absolutely stunning those last few minutes

 

[Ace]

The commentators noted during the game Mittelstadt won 1-0 how angry he looked that they lost the first two games. He took that anger out on everyone in the last three.

 

[Dubi Doo]

Mittlestadt reminded everyone that he's still around. He dominated the semis and championship. Those hands in close are going to result in a lot of goals throughout his career.

Dahlin looked gassed by the semis and championship, but you could see the talent oozing earlier in the tournament.

 

[Gabrielor]

Mittelstadt was one hell of a pick by Bott's team. Still don't think it gets enough credit.

But his pull-ups

 

[Ace]

Mittelstadt will retire from prospect camps 2-0 in the 3 on 3 tournament championship

 

[AustonsNostrils]

you gotta love Pekar, where's he playing next year? NCAA?

I wondered where Samuelsson was, wasn't til near the end that Duff said he wasn't physically right to play.

 

[AustonsNostrils]

oh yeah, Biro was pretty impressive as well.

 

[EichHart]

Just anyone have the video of the end to end rush with 1 on 1 where Dahlin skates backyards and breaks up the play? That was the best vid of the camp for him.

All the names mentioned were great but a real pleasant suprise for me was Nyberg and the Swedish D and Kukkonen who were drafted this year. They all look smart, mobile and have size. I think a year from now the D depth might be the strength of the system.

Some nice talent out there and Nylander, Pu, Samulson and Fitzpatrick weren't there.

[Tsujimoto]

He's committed to play at Miami of Ohio

I love the draft Botts had. This was the year to get loaded with D, next year looks strong on the forward end. D prospects take awhile to develop, young forwards not as long. We have 2 1st next year where we can grab 2 fallers like Isles did this year and restock the prospect pool while still building towards a contending roster.

Mittelstadt took over when his team couldn’t do anything and dominated his way to the championship

His strength training involved carrying the Gophers around on his back so yeah… Pretty similar.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Pekar looks like he can be the Marcus Foligno replacement...in more ways then one

 

[UnleashRasmus]

I think more like what we hoped Girgensons to be. He skates well has an underrated offensive game, but has such snarl and intensity.

 

[UnleashRasmus]

We need like three more of him in different positions.

 

[Cirris]

He's committed to play at Miami of Ohio

Solid program, not a top tier like Denver, the Bostons, the Minnesotas, or Michigan, but a solid one nonetheless.

 

[Cirris]

Pekar looks like he can be the Marcus Foligno replacement...in more ways then one

If Pekar had Foligno's size, he'd have been picked in the second round or late first. Pekar will probably be more of a Pat Kaleta type, with better motor-mouth skills.

Ha ha got to shake his hand and talk to him a bit after. He's tiny. Super nice though.
