Patrick seiloff (this years 2nd round pick) laid a absolute monster hit in his game the other day for the spit fires. I can't post a link to the video cuz I'm on my phone but if your interested I would definitely look it up. It's early but this kid looks like a monster! Makes passing up teravainen and trading the pick a bit easier to swallow
I also like how Seiloff said he's got more offence to give although that's not his game. With all the focus shifting to skill, a physical player like Seifloff will be a welcome presence on the Flames in the near future.
Hopefully just cause he got kicked out he doesn't think he has to stop hitting like that, that was huge and a good hit. Something in my opinion that should go unpunished in the game.
I know Jankow is a boom or bust type of prospect, but if Jankowski becomes an NHL regular we totally won that trade. Seiloff will be in the NHL without a doubt at some point, his physical presence will be a must on our team.

I hope he chose the right decision to play in college instead of playing in the USHL for one season.

Seiloff is big, and good positionally. I don't know that hes a lock for an NHL player though.

You are technically right without question, but I'm looking at our organizational needs. This season for example, Sarich was brought back for the sole reason to hit and add some much needed physicality to our team. In 2 years time, we'll likely have guys like Baertschi, Gaudreau and Granlund all challenging for regular spots which all skill players not known for toughness. Bouwmeester has never been physical and that's not Brodies game either. Having a player like Seiloff will be a necessity so our players don't get hurt. So while you are right in saying he can't be called a lock quite yet, I would say its extremely probable that he'll make our team in 2-3 seasons given his physical maturity.

I agree. I think a year in Windsor & 1 - 2 in Abby. He has the compete, physicality, aggressiveness, and work ethic to make it.... Unless he starts to show decline he should be a Flame soon.
