Didn't realize how tall he was. He keeps his feet moving at all times, went to the net constantly & skated to open space & is a tremendous passer. Seems to have great skill & instincts & kept up a constant back-check, although I did not notice great speed. Looks like he can become a high level NHL player, although with the loose, open All star game with zero hitting it's hard to to form a real conclusion, but I was VERY impressed.

Yea we got henrik in that period but in the 7th round and staal was a no brainer. that stretch of drafting by Smith and Sather is why we are in this position. I'd say every other team in the nhl has a promising forward on their roster right now that they drafted....we don't have that player, we have some good third liners The pathetic thing about not making the playoffs for 7 years in a row is that we have so little to show from it.

Rooting for prucha, staal, dubinsky and henrik is fun, but would be a lot better if I had any faith in the team as a whole or at least in its future Give me something to cheer for and i will.

7 years, no playoffs = pathetic

3(soon to be 4) straight years in post-season = headed in the right direction.

The problem with calling up Anisimov is he will be probably be replacing somebody else that we want in the lineup, since Renney won't sit a "star" or a fourth-liner. I'm sure the Rangers would have no problem calling upon him…as soon as a couple players hit the injured reserve. The reality is that we have still only had ten man-games lost to injury, and a few of those were Rissmiller. True that, Beer Me!
