Yes he will. He will have to do a couple things IMO. Need to adjust to the strength of men because right now he is pretty strong for his size, and he will need to adjust to the speed to because even at the OHL level he can be very occasionally be prone to bad decisions.

But the good thing is its very rare, and that often times its because he is processing the game at a fast pace and makes a simple mistake. Can be corrected.

Any player that's relied upon, to the extent the Finn is in Guelph, will be prone to trying to do too much.

He'll settle in at the AHL level, where he won't be a big fish in a little pond.

Finn + Leivo no points yet.

Biggs 1 assist.

Rupert no points yet, Knights have 9 goals, Rupert has been buzzing and pesting as usually though.

Brown didn't play?

Oops!

When can we expect the behind the draft 2012 to be released to the public?

Once the CBA is done. So I guess there is a chance tomorrow?

Not sure if we have to wait for the official CBA to be done which could be a while still.

All we know is it is 'coming soon'

Awesome thanks. I can't wait.

Leafs at Knight · 01-12-2013, 12:23 AM

We didn't sign him, he will be in this years draft.

He is overage. He went back into last year's draft and was not claimed. Unless he has been signed by someone, he is a free agent.

Exactly.

After we drafted him , and then didn't sign him .

Madic · 01-12-2013, 02:13 AM

A 7th round pick didn't pan out, whyyyy Burke whyyyyyy

Hoping you're just really, really good at sarcasm.

Yes, and since nobody else drafted him doesn't it make sense that we didn't sign him? He's certainly not a player we should be criticizing Burke for not signing.

kilgro · 01-12-2013, 09:00 AM

It's the end of the world. We didn't sign a 7th rounder, oh noes

.

Borschevsky · 01-12-2013, 09:19 AM

He has been at the same PPG pace for the past three seasons in the WHL and he's 20 years old now.

Good for him for getting player of the week but let's not be overly dramatic here.

Morgan Gardiner · 01-12-2013, 09:21 AM

Nicholls will be a star in Germany.

Grant · 01-12-2013, 08:08 PM

Can't find any old HF individual team prospect rankings showing all the teams prospects and how they were rated. I want to look at them but it seems as if those are now lost unless someone could point me in the right direction into finding them. In case they are lost, figured I will post this for the future so there would be some sort of reference.

Fall Team Rankings 2012-13

Edit: Feb 2007 is a few posts from this.

VanW27 · 01-12-2013, 08:15 PM

Another 3 pts for Brown so far tonight.
