<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aktobos71</b></div><div>In AHL his stats very dissapointing. Looks like they want give him morale boost. And when Doug can earliest give contract offer to Snuggerud?</div></div>

He’s not behind development. I’d give him 2 years still before he’s an everyday skater, just general human physical development needs to occur - only a very small few have the skill set to overcome, but he’s on the depth chart, and could be in the nhl if there were a whole bunch of injuries above him the coming seasons. Outside chance he directly makes the team next year, but possible.

Snuggerud is interesting: we won’t know if he’ll sign until he signs. Doug Armstrong has previously stated he would burn a year off the elc. This is a benefit to snuggerud and motivation to encourage him to sign. His NCAA career ends the day he signs, so typically this occurs when their season ends. He could sign any day, or decide not to at all.

Sujet: Who adds
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BDHockey</b></div><div>Mailloux sketches me out a little bit. I have mixed feelings about getting rid of Kyrou. I really think he isn't as bad as some people make him out be. There have been some games recently where he seemily is one of the forwards hounding for the pucks the most.

If we are trading Kyrou to make a significant impact for our Blueline then I am alright with that.</div></div>

Isn’t as bad? He’s scored at a .8 ppg pace over the last 4 years. I’ll never understand why this fan base is so quick to run a guy out of town because they don’t hit people.

I’d get it last year. He didn’t backcheck at all hardly. But he has made a very clear effort to be more involved in that regard. He’s shooting at a career low shooting percentage and is still pacing 65-70 points. Yes he over handles the puck a lot. And no I don’t love him and Rhomas on a line together either. Aside from Kapanen, he’s the only high end speed skater we have and we are a very slow team.

I swear it was the same way with Tarasenko when he was young and Perron.

Sujet: Blues in on Meier teams better pony up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>glarson17</b></div><div>Blues have 3 1sts just this year and also have Bolduc and snuggerud, they absolutely have the ability to drive up the price if not beat the devils if they want to play hardball</div></div>

I don't think the Blues would move anything meaningful more than 25 and 27. If i were a Sharks fan I'd be hoping to receive Holtz, and their 23 1st. Armstrong doesn't get in arms races, and he's extremely shrewd in negotiations. The Blues don't have any reason to outbid NJD or whomever who is going to pay a premium for Meier to help them this season.

I still don't know if Holtz is someone that's on the table, i have a hard time believing any franchise is willing to move any of their top end prospects. The repercussions of it can be just way too immense for either team and heavily skew the favor of the trade one way or another.

Sujet: Jersey retirement challenge maybe
Colorado (not counting Quebec stats here)

<strong>Hejduk</strong>- played in COL his whole career, one cup, 02-03 Richard trophy, 750+ pts

<strong>Tanguay</strong>- 400pts in 450 games, one cup, clutch playoff points/goals

<strong>Blake</strong>- one of the best D to play for COL not named Bourque or Foote, one cup


<strong>MacKinnon </strong>- no explanation needed, will end career holding most of every COL offensive record there is (maybe not most points in a season 120 by Sakic, or most goals in a season)

hard to pick 2 other recent players giving the short history of Colorados existence (since 1996).
Erik Johnson might get up there as hes been here 10 years plus and hes been an alternate captain for a while
Landeskog probably gets retired if they can win a cup and hes captain long term
