It's too early in the day for this trauma.

Kinda surprised Anton Lundell isn't getting more love. As with Stutzle and Raymond and Holtz, Lundell would demolish CHL opponents. This season, he's put up 21 points in 31 games (0.677 PPG) as an 18-year-old centerman in the Liiga. Last season, he put up 19 points in 38 games (0.5 PPG) as a 17-year-old winger in the Liiga. So, what he's doing this season isn't a fluke. He's not a superprospect like Barkov and Kakko were in their draft seasons; the production and wow factor aren't there. But I'd say 1) he's at least better than Kotkaniemi was in his draft season, and 2) his two-way prowess gives him real Selke potential. Think Ryan O'Reilly. I feel he's more NHL-ready than nearly all of his draft-eligible peers. It might take Byfield a couple of years to find his bearings as an NHL centerman (if only because he's relatively young), whereas I could see Lundell taking regular NHL shifts as a top-six C as early as December of this year (next season). http://www.mynhldraft.com/2020-nhl-draft/player-profiles/Anton-Lundell https://dobberprospects.com/january-draft-report-mid-season-rankings-breakdown/ https://dobberprospects.com/2020-nhl-draft-ranking-european-prospects-february-2020/

OK, cool, we're in the same boat. [goes back to scouring Twitter]

Is it official? I heard he's a right-handed forward, so naturally I'm extraordinarily skeptical.

Problem is we're gonna need actual serviceable players in the meantime. I'd be more into aggressively shopping him if he were older and looking for a major contract extension.

Maybe, maybe not. My thinking is that some contender's going to lose one of their scorers to injury and Fabbri's shown that he can play well and produce well on a team that doesn't play well and doesn't produce well and he's only 24 and he's cost-controlled. Again, I doubt we move him, but I think there'd be a pretty good market for him.

We need to work on your attitude, mister.

HYPE! LGRW!

But what a game it was!

My big takeaway is that we shouldn't be in on Askarov, because we can't win games even with Vezina-caliber goaltending. That's kind of a flippant take, but I don't care.

Same. I doubt Fabbri's going anywhere, but we could probably get a good 1st for him if he is.

HYPE! LGRW!

Just saw the Fabbri replay. criiiiiiiiiiiiiinge. If I go silent, it's cuz I lost the internet again.

Weather sucks here and is messing with my internet and such. Seems I haven't missed anything thus far. Seider time?

Every time. Every. Single. Time.

Also: I'm pretty sure talking to Helene would make me want to punch things.

My point is that I wouldn't put much stock in anything any hockey player says. "Oh, fer sure" is about all the insight you're gonna get.

I'd be fine with Mantha slew-footing Muzzin, tbh. Mantha doesn't even need to fight him. Do him dirty. Eye for an eye. Word.

I mean, what's he gonna say? "I'm gonna try and steer clear of him because I don't want to get hurt again"?

Later, Loo!
