Have the Flames been out of their own zone yet this period?

He's a UND recruit. Can't seem to figure out if he's playing in college this year. But regardless he can't attend this camp if he wants to retain his college eligbility.

Briefly. They seem a bit brain fartish on their break out the last few minutes.

Jankowski has looked really really good, more than impressed by him. Love his reach and reads all over the ice. Seems really calm taking the line and taking in his options.

Would certainly say I've elevated by third line view to middle six if that's fair?

Valimaki looks amazing, well ahead of his age in this tournament. Made me look at the draft again and where defensemen were taken.

I don't know if there is a more accurate predictor of success than how one team's group of non-NHL'ers competes against another team's group of non-NHL'ers.

Yep because a rookie pre-season tournament has high predictability for regular season success. Should've gone 3-0 to guarantee a Stanley cup this year.

It looks like he'll be playing for Sioux Falls in the USHL this year. He's on their training camp roster: http://assets.ngin.com/attachments/d...amp_Roster.pdf

I disagree - he's been literally invisible on the ice this game.
