Bowen has played forward his entire career except for a short stint at Pentictin last year as he was having some struggles at forward. What I've heard is that he's a flex player, he could play forward or D. However, forward would obviously be much more natural to him.

Whats up with the stream?

Lowest number of draft picks on this Und team that I've seen in quite some time. Irrelevant stat I know, but I noticed it.

I think Tomek will get some good looks this year. Saw him play this summer....kid's really good.

Canucks oilers 1-1 after 1. Goals by caggiula and stech.

oh my, just saw grabners move on Zane

I think if you've had the package since inception....the price stays the same correct? Because I've alway had every school's games however I typically receive a discount on the front end. I thought the price was lower however.

For those who purchase the NCHC.Tv package....was the bill supposed to be $89.95?

Beyond bad. Pretty embarrassing. We could really use a Czech win here against EUR.

still hits a bunch

I would almost guarantee Berry has made his pitch to the kid, however, I would assume that if he goes the college route, he'll end up on the East Coast. Didnt Bowers come on a visit with Liam Pecarro last year? I thought someone had mentioned that last year.

http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=78686 Just saying....he's one of the best players in the league.

Kessel couldnt have played even if he wanted to...he's recovering from surgery. The fact they left him off in the first place was puzzling though. And why don't you like Wheeler? He's awesome. Kesler is one of the best 2-way centers in the entire league BTW, he not your typical "grinder".

Oh, Sweden and Russia could give them a game however Russia's D is garbage and Sweden keeps losing players (obviously their D is stacked too). Kane - Pavelski - Patches: all-world stacked Parise - Stepen - Wheeler: pretty dang stacked if you ask me. JVR - Kesler - Oshie - They'll be extremely hard to play against. Abelkader - Dubisnky - Backes: That's about as great of a 4th line as a team can build. McDonough - Carlson: all-world stacked Suter - Byfuglien: all-world stacked Erik Johnson - Jack Johnson- I am not a fan of J Johnson but on the flip side he isnt bad either. Niskanen would be interesting here.

Huh??? We'll see, given the time of year and the age of team USA they may let down I guess. But I think they are pretty jacked up. I think Tyler Johnson and Shattenkirk should have made the team however the current team is still awesome. Abelkader is kind of a question mark and so is Dubisnky but they should be solid bottom six/PK options. Arguably best goalie combo, true bottom 6 with grit, true top 6 (along with most of the other teams), and top notch D. They should contend for Gold. Obviously Canada is a heavy favorite though.

Me too

This guy left over a month ago. Although he played in 33 games he was a healthy scratch during the F4. BC has also brought in at least four Dmen so I'm sure he wasnt guaranteed PT. I get it though, he was only a freshman, depth matters even if he's a 5/6/7.

Big difference is that Jost is quite a bit better (coming into his freshman year) than schmaltz was at the same time. I would say jost may be a click behind schmaltz (as a sophomore). Honestly they are slightly different players. Schmaltz is 100% a pass first guy who has to play with hard working goal scorers. Jost, while also a playmaker, is much more of an all around type player. His shot and goal scoring ability is top notch. He is also relentless on the D side of the puck. The missing piece of the equation is caggiula. I hope that with boeser taking a step forward and jost coming in as an elite player, someone like gersich can coming in and have a big year. He looked pretty dang good during the Beauty league. The one thing I've noticed about him is that he's not very headsy. Lacks vision. He absolutely flies though.

Is Bucci going to claim trademark infringement (or whatever)?

Rem Pitlick is leaving his USHL team and going to play with the goofs this year instead of next. Probably the right move as he dominated last year. Collin Adams will have to step it up a bit.

They still have a lot left.

just scalp

Definitely, i was just saying that in general. I don't think there is a problem getting verbals from those young kids as long as teams/coaches are aware of the risks (which they most likely are)
