Following assigned to Hartford: F: Kristo, Haley, Yogan, Kantor D: McIlrath, Johnson, Syvret, Hughes G: Talbot Biggest surprise obviously Kristo. Thought he had been doing a good job, I guess could use some work defensively. I would have given him the nod over Hrivik. No surprise about McIlrath. Still come cuts to go before opening night roster. Lindberg and Fast still with the team.
He blew covg. in his own end a few times...not the worst thing to get some seasoning down in HFD...unless of course the kid really is a hothead. I mean, he's going straight from college to the pros...hard to do.
Why is Bickel still on this roster? I really don't understand why this guy is still with this organization.
There's really no good option at the 7th dman. Kundratek as mentioned could be worth a shot, I always thought they should've kept him. Allen probably needs Hartford time for awhile. I guess they'll go with Falk.
I think it will be Falk as well. Allen might be a good one but not yet. I thought Johnson had a chance too but he was beaten a few times this preseason, most notably on that deflection in Edmonton the other night. As much crap as he took on the forums, Eminger would be the best option out of anybody but obviously we dont have the cap to bring him back. I think I heard he's in the KHL now
Well yeah of course he does, but if we're looking for a guy to be a 7th man and watch most games from the box except when needed, Eminger would be a better choice than Falk from what I've seen. Allen needs to play.
"D: McIlrath, Johnson, Syvret, Hughes" Phil Hughes trying his luck in hockey? can't be much worse than at baseball, no?
