At prospect camp I thought...ehhhh...nothing special. Then again, that was only practices and a scrimmage. What the first period showed me is that this kid excels in game action. Sure he's undersized at 5'9" but he makes an impact out there. He's certainly a few years away but keep your eye out for this kid. He threw up 64 points in 72 games in his first year in the rough and tumble WHL last year so he should only build on that.
Devin Didiomete
Of course one cannot blog about the first period of yesterday's game without mentioned the haymaker delivered by Didiomete on Luke Gazdic one minute into yesterday's contest. I'm not sure Gazdic still knows what planet he's on. Unfortunately Didiomete got tossed for removing his elbow pads.
That's about all I can remember from the contest—well other than the whistle happy stripes calling the game.
Remember the Jackets prospects play their final round robin game today at 2:30 versus the St. Louis Blues. You can view the game preview here and the box score should be available off of this link.
The Blues have some nice prospects on their squad in Berglund, Petriangelo and Oshie. Should be a solid matchup.
I believe the Jackets have to win to advance to a podium game.
Fire away - for those that had a chance to watch did anybody stand out in particular to you?
