captainsubtext 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2008 After spending his rookie season in a mainly understudy role with a veteran- laden Bulls team, the 18-year-old Guelph native wasn't expecting to be a go-to guy in the playoffs. But with star centre Shawn Matthias on the sidelines with tonsillitis, the door opened for Johnston in Belleville's first-round series against the Peterborough Petes and to say the youngster barged over the threshold would be an understatement. Johnston scored three times in five games to surpass his entire regular- season goal total of two. Plus, two of Johnston's goals in the Peterborough series were game-winners. http://www.nhlentrydraft2008.com/featuredP...p;featureID=250 He's a Red Wings Fan, Yzerman his favourite player.

chrisdetroit 189 Report post Posted June 21, 2008 The Detroit Red Wings used the 151st overall pick to draft the Central Scouting Service's 123rd-ranked skater, 6'4," 186-lb. centre Julien Cayer in the fifth round. Cayer played for Northwood School in New York State during the 07-08 season, posting 56 points in 42 games. Cayer was born in Quebec, but he's heading to Clarkson University, where 2007 draft pick Bryan Rufenach is playing. Cayer told the NHL Network that he went to high school in New York State to improve his academics and his English before heading to college, and he is in fact going to Clarkson this fall. He says that the Red Wings like his speed, shot, and his potential as a power forward, but they want him to get stronger physically. Cayer says that he had no clue who would draft him, and once his name got called, he was pretty happy, to say the least. http://blog.mlive.com/snapshots/2008/06/wi..._julien_ca.html Sounds good. Holy s***! we picked a guy that's 6'-4". We should sit Z down and play this guy! He's BIG. he's tough! The LGW website is gonna crash from all the people that want to talk about him.... Can he fight too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probert 5 For Fighting 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2008 hopefully this guy is a bruiser otherwise he would seem worthless with those stats Psst. He's 18 years old playing his first year in the OHL. Draft picks often have to be taken BEFORE they break out. Calling anybody worthless on draft day is weak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
