I'm Superman? Pretty neat!

You missed the joke that's on you.

LOL this is why we can't have nice things

 

[scokan]

oh look great... back to the same old bickering

 

[OHLTG]

No bickering here... just having some fun. Better than silence.... maybe..

no.
silence is golden.

 

[OHLTG]

no.
silence is golden.

(sweet nachos that irony)

Silence is boring. Hence why I tried talking about Piiroinen and the U18s. I mean it IS a discussion board, right? (so I'm told, at least)

 

[punch1943]

At least we get the draft picks....Anyone care to wager a $$ or two that he'll get sent here. (I thought not)
Perhaps before the shenanigans but .....

 

[OHLTG]

It wouldn't be the first time a Muskegon player left for the OHL - Svechnikov with Barrie, though that was via the CHL Import Draft.

Correct me if I’m wrong but depending on who picks him and what they think of his development, he could end up playing in the OHL, AHL USHL, or elsewhere. Unless things firm up here soon my guess is the Spits are at the low end of the totem pole...

He didn't play against Belarus. Finland was dominated by them shots for Belarus 62 and shots for Finland 18.

He has multiple options, but that wasn't the point of the post.

Given how Taponen has struggled a bit, wouldn't surprise me to see Piiroinen get a shot soon.

 

[TheGremlin]

If Kari is the beat goalie in age group then why hasn’t he started a game yet?? Did we wreck his confidence that bad?

Pardon me all to hell....catch you later....or perhaps not

I'm surprised he hasn't started yet.

That was just Warren pumping the tires of his guy.

“Those two guys are the goalies of the future,” Rychel said. “We can’t give up on Kari. It’s a learning experience and I know he struggled a little after Mikey left, but you can’t give up on the best goalie (in his age group) in Europe.”

One thing I won't miss about Warren is the pumping of players tires who don't have the resume.

 

[OHLTG]

lol ahhhhh... getting on WR's case after two (2) U18 games. "Kari hasn't started so WR must haven been all wrong on him." I missed this...

 

[Sec108]

Great job by former Spit Phillip Grubauer between the pipes for Colorado.......

 

[OHLTG]

I had Calgary as one-of-four teams in my pool; it's kind of crazy right now.

 

[TheGremlin]

So looks like Saginaw could be in some trouble if Prosvetov gets suspended for his toss the puck in the air and batting it into the crowd tonight. Some players have gotten 5 games. This could be interesting.

 

[TheGremlin]

 

[OHLTG]

If it indeed went out of play, it's 5-games, which is really unfortunate. I get the frustration but you can't lose your cool to that extent; any suspension could cost the Spirit the series.

That quote was before Piiroinen made the team. Do you believe he's the most talented goalie in Europe for his age group?

Not knowing his age group, I cant say. WR knows more than me on that for sure.

Most of the time he wasn’t the best goalie on a very average Spit team let alone one of the best in Europe. I too won’t miss the WR bull..

I mean they won but all the spits did was gouge the fans
alot of hype with rychel cant seem to hire the right coach
