I've no insight into that. Or firm opinions. But it appears to me that HIFK might be preparing a good spot for him next year and that'll be his first real test. His brother is their most popular player and they'll be losing him next summer. They would like the other Granlund to keep up some of the excitement, even if he isn't as dazzling as Mikael.
After next season, who knows. I just think that he needs time even though his season has perhaps been better than expected so far. It's just a matter of which situation gives him a better chance to develop.
He's not a guy I see making an NHL lineup at 20 years old like Horak. But young kids make surprising strides sometimes. I like his situation, I like that he's confident and active on ice, and I'm sure his brother signing a 3-million-dollar contract next summer will motivate him.

Awesome. I'm hoping he REALLY makes it difficult for Don Hay to cut him for the World Junior team.
He has 14 points in his last 7 games including tonight so far.

Max is really racking up a lot of points lately. I hope he can keep it up and get that WJC roster spot - he definitely deserves it.
Oh, and his brother Sam had the first assist on both goals. Sam impresses me as well ... this kid just turned 16 and now has 24 points in 27 games. So I hope Feaster knows what he has to do - draft Griffin in 2012 and Sam in 2014 
EDIT: he has a hattrick now!

Seems like he has been suspended.

#WHL Suspension - @Rebelshockey - Turner Elson, tbd under supplemental discipline versus Lethbridge on November 25 |
I didn't want to bring these up but that hit in question doesn't sound very smart after reading these.
Six games under supplemental discipline versus Lethbridge on November 25
The player followed the opponent for a considerable distance with significant speed.
He hit the opponent, who was in a vulnerable position, resulting in an injury to the opponent.

I caught part of the 'Hawks/Oil King's game a few weeks ago, but since Sven wasn't playing, I didn't really watch that much of the game.
What is the general consensus on Brossoit? He's big; that's for sure, and Peter Loubardias said good things about him. Goalies are sure hard to judge. It's almost like a team needs to draft one every year and hope one of them becomes great.
Maybe something to consider when/if trading Kipper.

Looks like Ferland has been suspended for 3 games for getting a game misconduct in his last game.

Just a heads up, Boston College with Gaudrea and Arnold are playing BUniversity on CBS sports. It's on channel 1432 for HD and channel 413 on Bell. Check your local provider.

Mikkelson now tied for 6th in AHL scoring for defensemen. Wilson isn't too far behind.
