I was fairly impressed with Doyle last year at training camp but he also would be an 18 year old this year so I guess it makes sense to drop him and go with the younger talent if the skill difference isn't that great.

Have a friend who has watched him a lot, says he is solid defensively, not flashy and not a shooter, just defends his zone well. If he can provide that he might be a valuable guy on a spotty defence this year. Would be nice paired up with Quen who provides a lot of offence but lacks defence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-67116881971010761882017-07-17T13:02:51.977-06:002017-07-17T13:02:51.977-06:00Interesting that there's nothing 2 weeks later...Interesting that there's nothing 2 weeks later.

I've noticed that Florida is one of those teams that doesn't shy away from a lack of size.<br />---------<br />I'd be disappointed If Kirichenko didn't get a pro shot. If I was a scout and my team had short defensive depth I'd want to pick him up. <br /><br />The fact that he showed noticeable improvements as late as his 19yr old year, and his 20yr old year is a good sign for future development. I think he at least deserves a 1 year AHL deal to show his merits. <br />----<br /><br />I'm excited to announce that my pre-season Eastern Conference Review is nearing completion. 3 teams to go...I plan to release a new team every day for 12 days. <br /><br />TigerTurfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359764110928059937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-88154912535024129862017-07-05T11:15:57.109-06:002017-07-05T11:15:57.109-06:00Hearing Clayton Kirichenko will commit to the Albe...Hearing Clayton Kirichenko will commit to the Alberta Golden Bears today, or some time this week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-12993041522112018272017-07-03T22:54:42.024-06:002017-07-03T22:54:42.024-06:00Damn.
