The problem with converting players, is, if theyve been playing one way for 10-20 years, you CANNOT change their muscle memory and thought process

Yup, out with a concussion.... out another week.
Patrick Coloumbe is also injured right now. Appearently it also isn't a very serious injury.

It doesnt work that way.
It is such a rare occurance for a Dman to be converted to a forward this late in his career. Scott Walker and Steve Staios are the only two that come to mind, with Brian Boyle doing the opposite.

Don't forget Wade Brookbank. His career certainly skyrocketed after he was converted to a defenseman.

So what happens when this thread finally gets updated?
Does it stay up until just before the draft again, and not come back for another 6 months? If it was going to take this long, why take down the old scouting report in the first place?
Halfway through this season, and it's still "under construction".

unrelated to war of words but when does Minny start playing again. It'd be nice for White to get a couple of games in before the troops return from Czech
Thanks to mr7 for the sig

let the "Draft Viktor Tikhonov" threads commence. He was born in 1988, so he'd be an overager pick like Shirokov was.
also the "should have drafted Brad Marchand" threads

Marchand and Giroux are overated on that team. They are good but that was easily the weakest team of the last 4 gold medals by a long shot.
