Yup, drew some Naslund comparisons but I think he's still a step below that unless his shot has really improved. Fast, skilled player, not as shifty as we've seen from Shinkaruk, and had a little trouble adjusting to the closed down time and space in the AHL and finding the dirty areas. Injuries didn't help either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not sure where that Benning quote came from (maybe something lost in translation). And Rodin played last night in Brynas' 5-1 victory over Rogle, so he's definitely not out of the lineup: http://m.shl.se/live/4952 That said, he did only play 16:03 (usually averages around 20 minutes) so they're probably easing him back into the lineup until he's pain-free and 100%. But the good news is that the reports of a serious injury appear to be erroneous, as Rodin is still playing and isn't expected to miss any future games. So Benning's scouting trip to Sweden this winter (and a possible signing) are still very much in the cards (so long as somebody tells JB that Rodin doesn't have a broken collarbone). Must have been a preliminary report before they got all the results back, maybe even combined with a little translation shift. Good news and would love to see him succeed after following him in the AHL and seeing flashes of his skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 If Rodin is brought in before the end of the NHL season, he'd have to pass thru waivers since he played on a pro-Euro team, right? Probably a better strategy to try to lure him for next season? Or this an old rule? Or am I just wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burmistrov to the Jets nor Radulov to the Preds a couple seasons ago had to go through waivers. And we still have his rights until 2018, so I think it's fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFAs or players whose rights are still held by their previous NHL team don't have to do so. That's why in the ROR situation, Calgary would have had to put him through waivers and probably lost him had they successfully offer sheeted him, but Colorado wouldn't have since he was their property. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestlockWarrior Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Rodin w. A nice power play goal. He is playing the Nazzy half board position on the PP. The whole Byrnas offence looks for him. Byrnas is up 1-0 in the 2nd period. Legit pesopect doing it against men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestlockWarrior Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Ive seen about 12 Brynas G games this year and Rodin has been a standout not only for his team but also vsing the other team. 14 goals in 25 games now with absolutely no help. One of BGs best player is Patrick Westerholm a 6th rnd throw in pick of the Canucks in 2011 along w. His twin brother Ponthus. I loved the Rodin pick at 53rd overall, I want either him or Tatar. Tatar sauce went to the wings at 60th overall. Of course it would have been nice to get Tyson Barrie who went at 63rd overall. I thought Rodin started putting everything together. He had a tough time w. Shoulder injury and adjustment to the NA style game when he was w. The Wolves. He will definitely be given plenty of look next fall. Is he eligible to join the Utica playoff run in April ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestlockWarrior Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Brynas was down 2-1 going into the 3rd and Rodin just went off !! He could have had a natural hat trick in the 3rd w. All the chances he had but the other teams goalie was solid. Rodin was relentless and finally scored w. 1 min 45 seconds left to tie it up. Brynas scores w. 40 seconds left and they win 3-2 Rodin w. 2 goals and was 1st star of the game again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he should be surrounded with some skill to be effective, much like we'd think with Shinkaruk or Baertschi.

RyIe Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Would love to see this guy replace Higgins. Also a bonus that he's a Swede. Which reminds me, I don't think Benning has drafted one in his tenure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
