We really need some of these guys to work out to supplement the roster.

Those are great stats for him. I have never known what to expect of this guy. What is he? Bottom 6 or top 6 guy? I hope he turns out to be a NHL regular but I really haven't had any confidence that he is capable of producing in the NHL. Can someone shed some light?

I love seeing the AHL team have success. Developing these young, homegrown kids is so important for maintaining long term viability. It's the reason Detroit has remained relevant for two decades.

I was worried when we moved out Agostino, Arnold, Van Brabant and Grant but it doesn't appear to have hurt at all. What really excites me though is that it's our kids (Shinkaruk, Klimchuk, Pribyl, Jankowski, Mangiapane) doing most of the damage not the vets like Vey, Frattin and Angelidis.

Cool to see the people we want to be scoring goals doing so. Shinkaruk, Mangiapanie, Priybl, Klimchuck,, Hathaway and Janko pitching in too.

How's Porier looking?

I heard that was the Flames' plan back when they signed him.

IIRC he played RW in the first game but moved to center when Angelidis was suspended after the season opener and has been centering Poirier and Klimchuk since then.

Getting a ton of shots but he hasn't been able to bury anything. If he keeps it up he will go on a hot streak sooner rather than later.

Sounds like a cop-show.

How about Pribyl?

I'm hoping to see Pribyl called up at some point during the season. Sooner rather than later preferably, he's old enough and has played some good hockey where we should be able to get a decent gauge on him. I watched the highlights from last night and he looks likes he's skating well after the surgery and is great with the puck on his stick. Time will tell, I just don't want my hopes on this guy to be too high.

Has had some untimely injuries which set him back. Really smart player with good hands. Hard working. Was used in more of a defensive role last year iirc, so hopefully he will continue to put up points in more of an offensive role this year.

I think we'll see him in the NHL at some point as a 3rd liner, if he can stay healthy.
