SaskBucks Posted December 15, 2005 Report Share Posted December 15, 2005 Always look forward to watching our kids play at Christmas time...this year's team is pretty young and will face great American and Russian teams...interesting to watch the Toews/Kessler matchup...is this Blake Comeau as good as touted?

Palssonater Posted December 15, 2005 Report Share Posted December 15, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real I went and saw some of this hockey in Grand Forks when it was there last year. Great stuff. Amazing to watch such young talent. Definetly a ton of potential on this year's team. Go Jon Toews! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguide Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real Of course he is-he's proved it every time -MemorialCup ring-point record in Prospect's game-he's the real deal-just like all Meadow Lake kids-check out Dwight King at the under 17's he's the real deal too. Blake is a pretty handy two way player-he can put on a clinic on puck support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguide Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real Just saw the roster Chipchura has the 'C' and Blake got an 'A'-watch hard work and talent grind up the Europeans at the under 18.

Bushman Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real Had Comeau in Gr. 9 P.E.. He had the talent and the discipline to make it to the highest ranks. Hats off to him and his parents for making the commitment and effort to make it this far! Superguide is right about King too! He will make an impact wherever he goes. Funny how people can see it in these kids at such a young age!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superguide Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real They did a feature on Blake in the Sakatoon Star Phoenix today-what a class act-he said you can't forget your roots and said he wouldn't be where he is without his local minor hockey association.I had the chance to evaluate AA tryouts with his Dad and he is great guy too.Nice to see good people who work hard get rewarded.

superguide Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real Just watching the boys take Russia to school-I think Blake showed everybody he belongs there after tonight. I can't believe the media doubting our Jr. team-I just can't get enough of whipping the Russians-still remember Ovechkin pouting during the gold medal game. Man I love CANADIAN hockey players-best in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaskMan Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real [ QUOTE ] still remember Ovechkin pouting during the gold medal game. [/ QUOTE ] Oh I know superguide is going to get on me for this. I'd be pouting too if I was getting whipped in a gold medal game, heck I've seen guys from every country cry over losing that one. So far in the 2005 NHL season all my doubts about Ovechkin are gone, he's a force on a piece of $h!t team. I know he's a russian superguide but if he was from Alberta you'd be pumping him up. Looking forward to the real tournament, I do hate Peter McGuire but he was right last night, nothing in pretourney matters, it'll be fun to watch.

superguide Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for real I guess hotdogging showoffs never turned my crank-you saw his true colours in the Jr. final last year and if the Capitals ever make it to the playoffs you'll see them again. Just another Jagr who'll play if it suits him not when his team needs him-like I said many times if I was in the position to own an NHL team I'd stock it with North American players and do just fine.I hope Russia and Canada meet in the gold medal game-we'll meet on neutral ground (Ernie's) and watch it.

superguide Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for Now Now don't be putting words in my mouth sunshine-that's a tough call there are situations when Draper is the guy you'd want on the ice and vice versa-I'll give the Russian's this much-I think Malkin is a much better kind of player than Ovechkin-that pointing at your name after a goal then running and hiding in the third makes me want to puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaskMan Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for I'll give you this much, I don't think the russians will compete in the olympics, too many rookies, I'd be more concerned with the Czech's. As for the Spezza thing, all that skill, big ice ???????. I'm not anti any country I just like watching good hockey players, I don't care where they're from and I can think of one young Canadian who is a bit of a hotdog too. Your buddy Cherry called him golden boy a couple weeks ago. lol By the way, if the bet ended to day, you'd owe me a guided shed hunt, 8 of the top 15 are Eurotrash as you call them, 20 soemthing of the top 40. lol Merry Christmas grapes. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguide Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for Ohh you little danglers all offense lol. Ask Megan about how I reacted when Kris Draper scored in the last Olympics lol. I almost wish Canada could send two teams alot of great hockey players here. I'm more PROCANADIAN than anti anything-burns my butt to see an underachieving European playing while a Canadian boy sits-after watching that Russian/Canadian Jr. game I'm thinking we'll whip them more from outcoaching-that Russian coach doesn't have much control on his bench-lots of chippy undisciplined penalties for us to capitalize on. You can hotdog all you want but you better be playing in the tough games too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaskMan Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for What about the underachieveing Canadian boys, are there none??? It is the NHL, not the Canadian Hockey League after all. Spots are earned, not saved for us. lol I like to think that Canada is leaving behind some pretty good players as well. Spezza, Staal, Marleau, I may take all of them. Jr team will have better coaching than anyone else for sure. Not nearly as talented as last years team, we'll see what happens. Russia will be a far different team if Malkin is released to play. Time will tell. Don't forget to feed your cows while the hockey bonanza is on. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguide Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for Don't tell me that canadian boys of equal talent hasven't been sat to play undrachieving europeans who were making more coin-look at the Sedin girls for instance they've floated around the Canucks for years-finally playing the odd good shift-i'll take home grown talent each and every time. There's certain europeans can play equally at times but game in game out-season through-it's a whole new ball of wax. just cause you have an accent doesn't make you better on the ice-look how Scotty Bowman gutted Buffalo drafting europeans-there are exceptions but not many.

SaskMan Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for The Sedin's were brought in at 18 in a clutch and grab league, honestly what did you expect?? How old are they now, 21, 22 and they're pretty decent players. How many highly touted boys from anywhere in the world have toiled in a team's system for years, sometimes eventually making the grade, sometimes not. Man there a pile of guys like that. Chad Kilger, Canadian kid who was highly touted, played periodically for years, now is playing as much in the minors as in the bigs, doesn't really matter where you're from, eventually you'll get the boot if you don't cut the mustard. Europeans aren't the only ones that get that break. All highly touted kids do. Sedin's are cutting it now. I don't give a $h!t where they're from.

SaskMan Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for I like this debate with you superguide. lol I am honestly not pro or anti any country I just like watching good hockey players and players like Darcy Hordichuk don't make that grade, homegrown or not. Buffalo has the third most points in the entire NHL, check out their roster, 9 europeans that are regulars on their roster I'm thinking their system wasn't gutted. lol They're better now than they've been in a long time and that is a fact not an opinion. You like gritty performances, how about Kovalev's single handed win against Ottowa last week, first game back form knee surgery and he plays like that, who gives a **** where he's from that was awesome. I know we'll never agree on this topic, Like I said I'm not anti anybody and I cheer for Canada at international events just like you do but I don't mind watching some guy, whereever he is from show some serious skill. So yes, I'd rather watch Alex Hemsky of your oilers than your Mike Peca anyday. Which one has helped them team more this year?? Go out scouting for me, you're going to owe me a shed hunt. lol Merry Christmas to you and your family. Gunner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguide Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Re: World Jr.s soon!!!! SuperGuide, is Comeau for Well sunshine wait till you coach some you'll find out you don't win with 17 hemsky's or 17 peca's-on the average anybody who knows hockey knows Canadians have the most 'game' of any country. I really hate people gushing over Europeans when there are Canadians of equal talent-one of local boys got the shaft at a dub camp this year because of their 'import'-have fun watching them dangle during the round robin I'll savour listening to 'O Canada' after the gold medal game.
