Was at the scrimmage today and thought it was pretty good, fast paced, lots of penalties although they never gave either team a powerplay, just went and did a face off.
Guys that stood out to me were...
Rastislav Konecny - Didnt overly shine but thought he played well, very good puck handler. I can see him being the top point getter on the team if Setoguchi doesnt return and if he does, those two would obiviously form part of the top line.
Bohdan Visnak - The only thing that worries me is his size, he's listed as 5'7. Got hit hard a few times, once by Kyle Klym who just nailed him along the boards. He got up and kept on playing which was impressive. Very fast skater. Wouldnt be surprised actually if he played some forward here.
Kyle Klym - Like I said above, made a very nice hit on Visnak, this guy is a keeper. May not score lots of goals although he did score tonite but he's aggresive and all over the ice. He can play hockey to, not just hit guys.
Troy Crowley - Looked good and should make the team, pretty fast.
Chris Cloud - One of the hardest working players tonite which is no surprise, he gives a 100% most of the time.
As for the goaltending, Holtby is obiviosly on the team, Trevor Peeters, Andrew Leslie, Carey Dyck and Josh Cardinal, a 17 yr old from Beardy's Midget AAA were all pretty even. Cardinal is 6'3, biggest goaltender there. I could see Cardinal being a possible backup but probably have to wait for pre-season to determine the 2nd goaltender.
Setoguchi, Rabbit werent on the roster sheet which was odd and neither was Garrett Klots acquired from Red Deer. Anyone know what his status is?
Going back to Klym, I believe it was worth picking him up.
