Steve-O: More of a contract issue I hear. Supposedly he played himself onto the team, but they sent him back to junior and won’t sign him yet for money reasons (cap or actual I don’t know).

I figured entry level contracts for top prospects were pretty standard procedure. If they sent him back to junior he wouldn't cost them anything anyway.

I look forward to the WJHC’s every year. But it will be nice to get a look of the new crop, since we might be picking one of these guys next year..

Gubranson or Larrson? Who has more upside. The WJHC should give us a better indication. Can’t wait for the JRs to start since the Oil are sharting the bed.

chucker: Interesting he didn’t sign with Florida.

It might be another Taylor vs. Tyler thing too (I can’t believe we’re talking about drafting in the top 3 at this stage, btw.. lol) where there isn’t much separation between two or three guys and we can draft by need.

Right now, I’d say Larsson’s resume sounds the nicest fit (scouts/reporters like to throw out the Lidstrom comparisons too readily for players though). Yah, a big centerman would be phenomenal, but I’ve always been of the belief to build from the back up.
