My experience has always been these guys are creatures of habit. so...... these are likely still the same

Thanks. I'll give it a shot.

I think it's quite likely that next summer enstrom is not resigned, Myers is traded and niku-poolman is our bottom pair next year.

Myers isn't going anywhere until Trouba signs a long term extension.

Yup. Did you not read "next summer"?

Thanks surixon. You've got big shoes to fill!

They are doing a lot of 2 on 0 attacking drills so far.

First one went in close together and shot for a rebound.

Second one criss crossed and a player would shoot from the high slot.

Third one a more random combination attack.

 

[surixon]

Combo drill now.

Starts with puck retrieval and breakout.

Leads to a two on 0 attack and finally a screen as point shot.

Working on goaltending?

Working on goaltending?

They where passing cross crease quickly and shooting on Comrie. Working on his side to side movement.

Yeah it seems a combination of attack and goalie work so far.

 

[surixon]

For those worrying about the picture. Connor still looks very fast out here.

For those worrying about the picture. Connor still looks very fast out here.

Apparently, he's only gained 12 pounds since his first Development Camp. That shouldn't slow him down that much.

 

[surixon]

Breakout drill that leads to two on one now.

 

[surixon]

Connor putting on a clinic with his speed, hands, passing and shooting. Granted all these drills are tailor made for skill players. Is like to see them do some battle drills.

That's great to hear. Would love to see him and Ehlers play together at some point. Both are such fantastic skaters

 

[surixon]

Two on one battle drills stating in the corner. This drill has been interesting. Comrie has been very good at tracking and moving for this one.

 

[surixon]

Morrissey's skating might even be better this year. Agility and pivoting is first class.

That's always been outstanding - super smooth and agile. Fun to watch! Thanks for the reports.

Great updates surixon, keep up the good work.

Looking forward to Dano smoking everyone in the beep test and shooting down any "out of shape" rumors

Smoking during the beep test is more like it.

 

[HPsauce]

Smoking during the beep test is more like it.

Im hoping he shows up in shape!

 

[surixon]

Im hoping he shows up in shape!

He looked leaner on the ice to me. His skating also looked fine but hard to get a real read on a bunch of guys in these sessions.

The high end skilled guys really stand out as it is mostly passing and quick attack drills. Guys like Lowry etc don't look great as quick puck movement and skating aren't their forte.

 

[KingBogo]

Thanks for the scouting reports surixon. Aavco will be proud
