an article by our own montreal on Hockey's Future (hope you don't mind me posting it here): www.hockeysfuture.com/article.php?sid=6136&mode=threaded&order=0Urquhart about himself: “I think my biggest skill is my offensive ability. I had 35 goals this year, and I had chances at a lot more. I’m a big center that makes his linemates better. I’m a smart player that can do the job defensively just as well as anybody--I was always playing against the top line. I know how to deceive the other team, and I know how to get into position to score goals, and, when I have the chance, I usually do.” I like his cockiness. I just hope he can back it up on the ice. R. p.s. nice work!

Thanks. I also have some great quotes from Kostsitsyn and Habs Russian scout Nikoli. I'm also trying to get some videos of Kosty in the WJC's. Anyway, the article should be out soon, I have to wait for HF, cause they told me not to use the quotes until they say.
I like what I read from Bonneau, and what a friend of mine was telling me. Apartently he took on just about every tough guy in the Q, which says a lot for a rookie that didn't fight before (the league wont allow fighting). Also, he sticks up for his teammates, so if he could learn to play hockey, it will be interesting.
Urquhart, needs to have a big year in the Q, cause he can play in Hamilton the following year. He's got decent size, he knows how to score goals, and he's not a liability in his own end. I really look forward to seeing what he can do in 3 years or so.
Locke put up some sick numbers. He also needs a good season, but he may lose his linemate Matt Foy (wild may sign him after an outstanding season), and that could effect his production. He like Urquhart will be able to play in Hamilton the following season.

Urkle appears to be very intriguing(sp). At first I thought he was sort of a Perreault clone, but if he keeps on working on his defence and uses his size somewhat, he should be a better player than YP.
thanks again montreal!
