Sens CHL Prospects from HF

All you have is that video basically...we know nothing else about him other than hearsay. I do not want to overhype prospects. Videos don't show their negatives and don't show their bad skating.

Arron Asham was a ridiculous goal scorer in junior as well. Now he's a 3rd line role player.

Also, in the playoffs, i.e crunch time, Stone scored 3 goals in 33 games.

He's advancing through the ranks of prospects for us though, he might never set foot in the NHL, but right now he's got to be in the top 20 or even top 15 prospects for Ottawa with a HUGE summer coming up for him to work on his skating. I agree, we shouldn't overhype the prospects, but this is a tremendous achievement already for Stone who as just picked as a 6th rounder. I don't see him falling off the tracks, I can see him being a good pro - it's whether he can work on his skating enough to make the NHL - which is a big question right now.

Gems come out of nowhere sometimes, Jamie Benn is a 6th rounder I think, so why not? In the last 7 years it never happened to Ottawa, might be our time this time.

Yeah exactly. It can happen at any time to any team, why not us?

I'm pretty happy with a couple of 7th rounders that look like they've played themselves onto the big club. If Condra and Greening continue playing the way they did this year, they'll qualify as "gems out of nowhere."

Alfie was a 6th rounder( Benn was 5th). Hopefully he will be joined by other later rounder Sens picks who achieve greatness.

I'll settle for 'really good', but I know what you mean.

That's sad. The Chiefs win 8-3 and Cowen finishes with 1 assist and a +/- of 0

Yeah, that was the first thing I noticed. Cowen's such a force apparently, it's not even funny. It's great to hear.

Check the penalties

Yeah, they don't like each other at all.
