There are two players I've been reading about. Does anyone know anything about them?
Joffrey Lupil from the Portland Winter Hawks (they are becoming our farm team ((Hossa and Balej))) and Jiri Hudler from Czecheslovakia. I know we played too well (tongue in cheek) to get Jay Bowmeister or a top 5 prospect, but one of these two guys could drop down low enough for us to grab. What do you think? I favor young fast and skilled good skaters over the bigger riskier projects. We don't need another Chouinard. Ribs with all his problems has shown much better effort than Chou and all his potential. I wouldn't mind trading any of the d-men on our roster (Markov only as a last resort) to move up in the draft, but I'd insist on keeping our defensive prospects on the farm.
