Who said anything about LGW? More than just me and "my slappies" held that opinion.

It is not so relevant right now in comparing the two players. Neither of them are having any impact in the NHL right now.

Hudler was ranked in the top ten...number one center in the draft. |
Hudler was #3 European in the 2002 NHL Draft. I was there. In Toronto.
The Leafs seemed to complain that they took Matt Stajan at 60 instead of Hudler, who was taken 62nd.
Hudler: 12 GP, 1G, 2A, 3Pts., 10PIM
Stajan: 94, 18, 19, 37, 34.
I'll give Hudler some time for transition, but I think I still like Stajan.

Can I be a slappy too, Mommy? I'll be good and everything, even eat my broccoli, promise!
Anyway I'm reserving judgment on Abdelkader....few players make an impression as a freshman. Adjusting to college is a bigger challenge (taking classes and all....you're not focusing solely on hockey) than playing in juniors for the first time. Only the best of the best - the Dany Heatleys - are freshman stars.

I went to the Spartan game tonight, Abdelkader looked pretty good. He had a monster check on a BG player.

ya I would take Stajan over Hudler. But most of all if it was my call for the 2002 draft I would have traded up for Jim Slater. But you know what really gets me, our 4th round pick that year. Horrid. Staffan Kronwall hello people, didn't go until the 9th damn round.

Hudler was taken 58th.
And Hudler has seen very little actual playing time in his NHL career, while Stajan has been given a chance on the thinner Maple Leafs.

Good signs 
"Freshman Justin Abdelkader, who was selected by the Red Wings in the second-round of June's NHL Entry Draft, had his first multiple-point game (a goal and an assist) for the Spartans.
Abdelkader assisted on Tim Crowder's goal to give the Spartans a 1-0, first-period lead. He scored with 9:56 left in regulation to draw the Spartans even."

I watched that GLIAC game last night. Abdelkader looked pretty sharp most of the time. He skated hard and beat a tough goalie. Let's hope Abdelkader can keep it up.
MTU's goalie (Teslak, I think?) stole the show. Something like 57 saves on 60 shots.

Its the GLI, not GLIAC. The GLIAC is the conference GVSU, SVSU, etc is in
I read someone 60 shots is a new GLI record.

Except Fretter(sp) made him look like a sieve with that move......and lets not forget the fact that he left half the net open right before he scored.

There was virtually no one making him work for that guy, no one challenged him either.

Yeah, there was absolutely no coverage and Fretter made a great move to beat Teslak. Yes, MTU lost, but stopping 57 out of 60 is an awfully good performance by Teslak. Can you seriously knock a goalie for having a .950 save percentage in a game?

"Hell of a player" would prolly be the right answer when commenting about Latendresse.
