Sioux at NHL Development Camps

[sprig]

Toews and Bolland switched teams and this time the red team won.

Seems that both Dowell and Skille have been impressing the Chicago management at the prospect camp. If Chicago intends to sign youngsters to be part of the team this year, it would appear they'll make a run at these two as well as Toews.

This time Red crushed White 11-4 so the focus has shifted to Skille who has been consistent every scrimmage. Toews is not mentioned and my fingers are crossed.

I am not against the Hawks signing Skille and Dowell.

It's basically a "ladder". Start at the goal line. Blue line, back. Red line, back. Far blue line, back. Far goal line, back. In under 45 seconds.

God I hated having to do those.

We called those "air bags" (as in not the type in cars, but the type in airliners) because we'd keep running one of those every other minute until someone needed an "Air Bag!"

Here is some info on Porter's time at camp. Lots of compliments from all around

"Norfolk head coach Mike Haviland: I really liked [Chris] Porter. I thought he had a good camp. I thought [Jack] Skille had a good camp. Jake Dowell had a good camp ... that whole line was really good with [Adam] Burish and [Nathan] Davis. I really like the future of the Blackhawks with Bolland, Barker, Toews and the other guys who had to leave early.

Norfolk assistant coach Ted Dent: Porter was a guy who impressed me. He was tenacious, finished checks. Obviously the guys who left early -- they were impressive at various times throughout the week as well."

Plus plenty of other mentions of Porter and Toews.

I like how how the scoring sheet or whatever that was at the bottom of the article had Chris Porter, Jonathan Toews, and Tyler McGregor right in a row.

I think the dark jersey is Kaip?

[stafford_rules]

[johnsowe]

I know is is a little off topic by the Wilds preseason schudule is out are they not planning to come to GF?

im pretty sure it is, kaip's # was 43 and i can see a 3 and it looks like him. but also there is a d man by the name of brian lee there...weird! thats actually what the caption of that photo says as to whom the forwards (little and hamilton) are passing, im pretty sure its misprint since those two are on the same team as that brian lee.

I think they are playing less Preseason games and they would rather sell 18,000 tickets.

The Wild don't want to let their mediocrity out into the open too soon and to a crowd that, though they are fans, won't be regular season ticket or ticket purchasers at the X.

Don't worry though, you can catch the Mild on FSN North all season long having one of the leagues best PKs and leagues worst PP and total offense.
