They might be fine once Malcolm comes back...but that needs to be soon. They are pretty brutal without him. Charlie Graham isn't really holding the fort, although I wouldn't expect a 16 year old rookie to do that anyway. I think Crammer will be back next season and play a big role, the guy seems to be finding his offense here with the Bulls, nice move for the shootout winner on saturday. Silo is still eligable to play? Seems like he's been here forever.
Can anyone here tell me how the Bulls have done since the departure of Simon Gronvaldt? Im also looking for some information on his strengths and weaknesses.
Reason for asking is because i noticed that he has returned to Denmark and has play 2games in the mens league. Today he was also selected for the Danish national mens team, for a couple of exhibition games next month.

Anyone know what's wrong with Subban? Three horrible starts in a row. Is he still hurting?
Injuries, especially on the back end are a big issue....they will be hard-pressed to make it in. It's been a long hard fall from first overall earlier in the year.
The Bulls are sinking fast.
They have NO veteran leadership.Judson talks about how he and the other veterans must lead the way but the game starts and he disappears.He should stop talking to the media because he only embarasses himself.If he has a mysterious injury or he just doesn,t care then sit him and give Lemmon,Carnevale and Hooey more ice.They at least give a honest effort and play with much needed grit.
Mayer apparently has the same ailment as Judson and has been a huge bust.The deal looks even worse when you consider the Bulls let their best Dman Gronvaldt go to make room for Mayer.They miss his special team ability and his leadership.
Zharkov has stopped producing and he refuses to pay the price to get the dirty goals to break out of his slump.He is like the majority of Bulls and won,t go to the front of the net.They love to play on the outside even on the PP.
Subban is rusty after the extended injury time off.I just hope he doesn,t lose his confidence because his almost cocky believe in his abilities is what makes him a very good goalie.
The lack of leadership and grit will doom the Bulls.
They should make it in since they have some games in hand. If they do make it in, I wouldn't want to play them cause if they start playing like they were earlier, and they could knock off a top seed.

Well your right Mr.Burgundy, Payerl is that big bodied winger that is a good skater, hits, and has a NHL shot. The knock on him might be that he has been alittle inconsistant over his junior career. He was at the Columbus rookie camp, and by all accounts he had a Great camp. I thought the Blue Jackets really liked him because he wasnt sent back until after the Bulls season already started. Adam will also stick up for teammates when needed.
Bulls begin their playoffs tonite in ottawa, Keys for the bulls are Malcolm Subban, Malcolm Subban and Malcolm Subban! He will only hold the fort down for so long, the bulls have to get the pp going to have ANY chance at all! Prediction 67's in 6 sorry bulls fans
Playoffs and I'm back. Best time of the year...unfortunately I like the spoiler role and the Bulls looked like they might put a scare into the 67's but alas the 67's showed their depth and a beauty goal ended the hopes for the night. Still think most of the games will be relatively tight but the 67's do have enough firepower to change that in a hurry!
Great win for the bulls last night, just a comment on a few bulls that have caught my eye in the first 4 games. Garrett Hooey (extremely hard worker, never quits) Brady Austin (great skater, smart with the puck for a big man, has pro-contract writen all over him) Jake Worrad (very quick skater, rushs the puck like no other, really stepping up his play, great pick-up) Play-offs are a great indicator of a players character and drive. The future bodes well for the future of the bulls.
Well, a disappointing end for sure. Really looking forward to (hopefully) a full season of Malcolm next year, more production from Jordan, and hopefully a better season all around. Any thoughts who will be the captain next year? Silo and Gaunce are here for only one more year (maybe 2 for Gaunce), so I wouldn't think them. Who could take over for Judder?
To be honest i dont think there is a player on the roster that come to mind that should be captain! Silas is an overage if he comes back? What about Cramarossa?
I dont know much about Niki Petti but from all accounts he has elite skill, which is what the bulls are looking for. Very intrigued with Daniel DeSousa in the second round? I seen him in the OHL cup final and he didnt stand out, who would he be best to compare with currently in the O? Our third rounder Micheal Cramarossa, the brother to current bull Joesph, the knock on him is his skating, great hockey IQ but has a weird skating style. For the rest of the picks, would love some reports on them? Anyone?
Under George Burnett they new top 3 rounds will be signed although the will not be given large amounts of ice first year as is the case with many Coaches and first year players. Niki will do fine a little quicker than Cramarossa who does have a very upright skating style that looks odd to some. But, he does have good hockey IQ and that will manifest 2nd year forwards. Desousa is a very good defensemen and a great pick...has a temper and a little mean streak that should make him tough to play against once he begins to physically mature. If Belleville didn't slip to 10th in first round then we would've seen DalColle who I think will be a real stud for Oshawa.
