It's mostly sunny today in Phoenix with a high of 103F/39C.
Well it has been hard to collect information about the young guys at the Yote's camp but here is what they're saying-
- the old-timers line of Whitney-Langkow-Doan has been the best line in the pre-season
- none of the youngsters has stood out for the right reasons
- McLean has underwhelmed and not been impressive. The feeling is that if he's not scoring he doesn't add enough other skills to be worthwhile
- Tikohonov has been invisible
- Boedker just isn't showing any offensive instincts. Feeling is he may make the team but has looked unmotivated for someone trying to make the team
- Andy Miele has looks like he needs time in the AHL which isn't surprising
- OEL is doing well, rushing/handling the puck. Had a pretty ggod game vs Edmonton last night
- GM Maloney has been singing Lauri Korpikoski's praises during camp
- someone else having a good camp is Patty O'Sullivan. Apparently he had 2 points on the PP last night. He bears watching
Last night's game vs Edmonton:
Miele with 14 min TOI, 0 SOG, 0pt.
McLean, 13 min TOI, 0 SOG, 0pt.
Boedker, 16 min TOI, 2 SOG, 0pt.
