I was just checking around some of the prospects that were going in or out of the SE division and came across this quote. If this guy has less offensive potential than Jeff Schultz, does he even cross the red line?

Well, Rogers had like 20 points in 150 WHL games and Schultz had 107 in 262, so I don’t think it’s an unfair assessment.

I guess not. I just laugh at the thought of Jeff Schultz having any offensive potential.

I hear ya. I don’t think he’ll ever top 25 points or 6-8 goals. But then Chara had 28 points in his first 206 NHL games. Now, I don’t think Schultz will ever be Chara (or even a poor man’s Chara) but then you never know what the development curve is for a guy Schultz’s size.

Good point. I lived on Long Island when Chara was there and I can remember how goofy he looked on skates for a few years but always thinking he would be a beast if he ever got his footwork together. Then the Pisles traded him and the rest is history…

Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
