Brett Cyrgalis at The Blue Seats discusses how comfortable Chris Drury looked with Scott Gomez today. He has this to say about how Gomez can elevate Drury's game:

"The point is that Drury is going to get a lot more scoring opportunities playing on Gomez's wing. He's not necessarily the direct playmaker that Gomez is, and maybe that's why his production wasn't where he wanted it to be last year. As an indirect playmaker, he will see more success."

I guess I jumped the gun the other day when I said that the Drury on the wing experiment failed. However, success against an obviously over-matched SC Bern team should hardly be considered assurance that Drury will produce on the wing.

Cyrgalis also looks at Prucha's size, Redden's offensive ability, Valiquette finally playing well, and Dubinsky scoring a Gretzkyesque goal today.
