My Providence Bruins Lineup Fall 2017

It's looking right now like Bjork has the highest chance to make the NHL of any of our wingers. Not really sure how you have DeBrusk beating him out and am guessing you're basically just assuming that DeBrusk is better because he played in a professional league last year. I think Bjork is better than Heinen and Debrusk by a wide margin. Bjork could get AHL time, but he'd likely demolish the league in a matter of 10 to 15 games, proving he was NHL ready. I think he signed with us because we told him he would be in the competition for a top 9 role this season. He's done nothing but impress everyone who's watched him thus far. I don't understand how that equates to him losing the battle against either Heinen or DeBrusk. Bjork is in the lead right now with all the momentum he's created. Heinen is slightly behind, but also a solid option. DeBrusk has the longest odds and although he's a good player, is likely going to be a "go-to" guy on the P Bruins. This will only be his 2nd AHL season and he regressed in the CHL the year after he was drafted. It would be a better option to see if he can build on his first year of experience and prove he's gotten better. I think he's good, but he's the least ready of the 3 to be depended on in the big league.

Debrusk didn't regress the year after he was drafted. He suffered a serious lower body injury. He took a puck to the nuts after he went to block a shot and one swelled up the size of a tennis ball. He rushed himself back from the injury that year and stated he wasn't fully healthy until that season's development camp for Boston. He then goes out and has a solid first season with the Providence Bruins. To say he's the least ready of the 3 is quite comical to me. Honestly, there is no wrong answer when saying Debrusk/Heinen/Bjork could make the team.

Whether it's Debrusk, Heinen or Bjork that makes the big B's the Baby B's still look pretty good. Lots of great young talent that will hopefully mature into great players for the big B's!

Not sure why I have to repeat always but........

Bjork has 0 "Bruin" experience. I want to see him demolish the AHL first. That's why its there!!!! It's a proving ground!!!!
He has only played American College which is inferior to Canadian Junior leagues so I'm sure he has impressed because the player calibre is lower.
As I have said many times, Bjork may have more pure talent than Heinen or DeBrusk but the latter have "PRO" experience and both did very well in the last half of last year!!!
They are dependable from coaches aspect.
They know the Bruin system. Bjork has never played in the Bruin system. Even Backes struggled learning the Bruins system!!

No he regressed in finding the back of the net. I even read that fact in a major hockey publication. Surely you are not better than they? Or you think you are Brekel?, the high and mighty Brekel who's paid not a cent for his words, but thinks that they are law. Quite unwise to have me deal with you again my friend. Everything you do is hilarious to me because theres never enough behind it. It's as if you do a manual labor type job, yet strive to be perceived as a white collar intellectual.

There are less right answers at this moment of time in saying who will make the team and who will not, because some are more unlikely than others. We are judging these mocks by their perceptual merit and therefore some can be determined as better than others. That is how this site works Brekel, that is how you decide what amount of stars to give to each participant. Are you unaware of this concept entirely my buddy? Is this such a complex notion that if you pick the guy who has a 20% chance to make a team and omit the guy who has a 90% chance to make a team, that you are being unrealistic and deserve less awards?

Brekel I will not try to take your opinion away from you, but you simply are not as right as you think you are and I believe you're in the business of always trying to be right. It's very hilarious when I read your posts, I enjoy them to the maximum.
