My thoughts.

Owens has a real s*** at making this team as a 4th liner in the future. Speed and toughness, he's like a Helm that fights.

Andderson is a big boy and he could still add some weight to his frame and become a real third line anchor

Tatar is the real deal

Hudler looks much faster now then last time he was here, the difference seems pretty big too

Smith is bigger then I thought too, could use some more weight though

Mursak is as fast as Helm, he tailed Helm the whole way down the ice on a back check

Tardif looked pretty good out there too

Those are just thoughts off the top of my head for those of you who couldn't catch the game

I bet a bottom pair of Janik-Salei would be more solid than Ericsson-Salei

Agreed. I really think Janik should get a shot as a permanent on this roster, Kindl has some hands for a defenseman but no other part of his game impressed me. From watching today how Smith played this guy could be a top pairing defenseman and would probably be better then Kindl now

That's what I'm thinking too. Kindl can probably count himself lucky right now that Smith is a few years behind in physical development.

I tried to watch the whole game, but I missed all but 3 goals because I'm at work, and there was no replay on the stream :(

From what I did see, vFlip had some very strong moves early on and almost buried a couple of chances, Bertuzzi still hasn't leaned how to hold a stick with 2 hands, Cleary appears to have regained a step, Modano looks awesome wearing the winged wheel, Hudler is going to have a big year on the PP, he looks like he got stronger and faster while he was gone.

I am excited about Brendan Smith, he looks like he will be a top-2 guy in a few years, hopefully the defensive aspects of his game will catch up to his offense. Tatar and Mursak are going to have huge years in GR and it will be hard to keep them off the big squad next year. I hope Owens gets a chance, he could be a good 3rd/4th line player that can hit, fight, and has decent hands and speed.

I can't wait until we start playing some other teams, even if it is pre-season, I will be glued to my laptop screen. Please, please, please keep the stream links coming.
