He was totally riding the coattails of Morin and Sceviour!!!!!!

Well..partly true. He has definitely showed that he's a great support player and front of net presence. Like Coach Willie said, more skillful than expected.

Don't be surprised if his ceiling ends up being a 3rd line power forward type. Maybe put him back on the line with Scevs in Dallas.

Let's be honest. He could instantly do what Horcoff is doing, minus faceoffs.

 

[Frozen Failure]

Curtis McKenzie for Prime Minister of Austin.

Pretty much.

 

[piqued]

That's pretty awesome for McKenzie, good linemates or not. He's gone from being a fringe prospect to a very real contender for a roster spot in the space of a year.

 

[LaVar]

I see Klingberg had a nice season in Frolunda.

How good is he projected to be? Will he be starting next season in Texas?

He has a real chance to be with Dallas, actually. We have a strong need for a RH puck moving defenseman who can QB the powerplay.

Did Jackson scout McKenzie?

 

[Bluesoma]

Did Jackson scout McKenzie?

When he was college or something?

 

[Bluesoma]

Troock already listed in today's game notes. His number is 33. Wonder if he'll be in tonight. I'll have to try and figure it out with OKC's and AHL's ****** feed.

 

[Cin]

Yeah, I'm curious to know who was scouting him before he was drafted. It looks like a player with Jackson written all over him.

What a weird ****in' number for him to get.

He came out of the BCHL like Benn so I'm guessing he was mainly a Holland pick.

 

[Captain Awesome]

Isn't that kind of a goalie number? That would look really weird on the ice.

 

[Johno]

thankfully he isn't the number one playing the most minutes every night, so don't have to look at it too often. oh, wait...

 

[Starry Knight]

People who are really big as kids get goalie jerseys in minor hockey. Usually keep those numbers throughout their life

 

[BigG44]

That would be my guess as well. Churla mainly covered Minnesota I believe, but he also watched some WHL games. Assume that would also include BCHL.

 

[BigG44]

Troock will not play.

 

[Bluesoma]

Lot of guys not playing tonight. Ritchie, Morin, Fortunus, Hulak, Klingberg.

 

[Bluesoma]

Nice play by Guptil and Peters and Petersen to score the first goal. Guptil with his first pro point I believe?

 

[BigG44]

Lines seem to be:

Hedden-Dowling-Glennie
Petersen-Faksa-Stransky
McKenzie-Vause-Ranford

For the goal ... Petersen was still on when Guptil-Peters came out.

Guptill with first pro point an assist on Petersen goal

 

[BigG44]

Oops ...

Henderson-Faksa-Stransky
Guptill-Peters-Petersen
