Sure I did, bud. You keep revising the record.

Now, I love me some Hal Gill.

Make good passes, close off angles, block shots, break up the cycle down low, get the puck out of the zone.

Don’t be skating it deep on the rush or hanging out at the side of the net - this isn’t Minsk.
Doesn't hit or play as physical as Hal Gill, though. And given his injury history, it is probably advisable that he not.

He was a late starter in terms of coming into the league compared to others and to date still hasn't played a sum total of a full season yet, currently at 77 games played. I think he's still learning and improving his game. The good thing is, Huska is a master at developing defencemen in my opinion, but the bad thing is, at his age, he probably needs to take a huge step this year and become a mainstay in the lineup if he doesn't want to get jumped by an eager kid next training camp.

You're posting in an entire thread on this subject.



I've only just now posted in this thread after several pages. Mainly to comment on CPers coming around on Miromanov. Really hope I'm wrong about Sharangovich and Grushnikov, too, by the way. I'm sure those were tone related as well.
With the benefit of hindsight now which players they Conroy has picked up or drafted do you like?
