Training Camp 2018

[Zhamnov10]

How has Buff looked weight wise?
Anyone see him?

He looked heavy In some pics from that summer league he plays in.He has looked lean the last couple of training camps I sure hope he hasn’t fallen off the wagon!!

 

[GNP]

You bet. Lean Laine = Fast Laine = Deadly Laine. Good that "Bulky Laine" is behind us...

Looking forward to "Life in the Fast Laine".

_________________________________________________________

I'd say Laine is about 6'5 tall, and weighs around 240 lbs, by looking at him on TV. If he lost around 8 lbs, it would add a lot of jump and speed. It's only 8-9 pounds but it makes a huge difference, not carrying that extra weight around -"way more endurance."

If he could his jump,speed and endurance up to the level of Wheeler or Scheiffle--"he'd be very deadly."

The report is that he dropped 14 lbs.

no wonder he couldn't keep up last year. he was 254 pounds

 

[GNP]

That's great, so he now should be about 240- 14 = 226 lbs, or thereabouts. I saw him at tennis practice in Finland, and he looks very slim -I'd say anywhere from 220 to 226 lbs. For hockey I think a 6'5 guy should weigh ideally about 220-225 lbs-maximum, unless your a huge boned guy like Buff--who could look slim and still weigh 240 lbs.

We should notice a big change in Laine's speed this upcoming year-"great."

 

[Howard Chuck]

I thought he was very light for his height, like 215 lbs ? Maybe I remember wrong.

 

[Arthur Fonzarelli]

He's on the Scheifele diet!

 

[Duke749]

240? We sure that’s accurate? Seems high.

 

[Howard Chuck]

240? We sure that’s accurate? Seems high.

I think that's very high from my memory.

 

[Duke749]

I think that's very high from my memory.

240 is pretty dam stout. I’d be surprised if he ever reached that weight.

 

[Huffer]

240? We sure that’s accurate? Seems high.

Didn't that number just come from GNP's head?

 

[Trilliann]

240? We sure that’s accurate? Seems high.

No it's not accurate, it's completely made up, "he looks 240 on tv"

 

[Arthur Fonzarelli]

What are you people talking about? Laine was never 256 pounds, not 240 either.

Good lord thats Buff big.

Every source out there has him listed at 205 pounds.

 

[Trilliann]

Didn't that number just come from GNP's head?

Yes

 

[Duke749]

Well yeah I guess I should have quoted him. But that number seemed way high.

Good lord thats Buff big.

Every source out there has him listed at 205 pounds.

That seems much more accurate.

Whats worse is people actually accepted it...my first thought was "there's no way in hell that's remotely true"

In other news Skyler McEnzie dropped 16 pounds and will be the first prospect to attend training camp weighing nothing at all.

I hope you’re not referring to me as I was trying to get clarification on his weight. My first thought was similar to yours.

 

[Saintb]

Logan Stanley to take a big step forward on his way to replacing Trouba in two years.

 

[JetsUK]

Logan Stanley to take a big step forward on his way to replacing Trouba in two years.

To be fair, any step Big Logan Stanley takes is a big step.

IWe're missing Laine, Ehlers, Helly and a couple others. We would like to get the complete team on there and thought our best chance was to get it at or before TC at Iceplex.

I'm think he's in town. His GF brings their dog to the dog park I go to, and I'm pretty sure they were there earlier this week.

Heard he was living in Norwood Flats, FWIW.

It wouldn’t be a short drive to St Mary’s and the Perimeter then, but it’s still worth the extra few min to get to the Maple Grove dog park.

 

[GaryPoppins]

For whatever reason, I have this gut feeling that Tanev is going to have a really solid year.

 

[HannuJ]

240? We sure that’s accurate? Seems high.

at least 15 lbs was food and gravel stuck in that gross "beard" of his
