There will come a time when they can no longer over look this kids talent, maybe once JB has left and Juolevi has to stand on his own merit, to me it's a competition between Rathbone and Juolevi. I'm equally shocked that Chatfield has not been given a longer strech ditto Rafferty. If the season continues like it is we need to groom these young D for the future. Why Vcr signed Hamorlic and frankly Benn eludes me. Here we are up to our eye's in Cap problems and rather than give the youngsters a boost we spend $3+ million 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I almost prefer to see Rathbone in Utica as far away from our coaches as possible. I think Trent Cull will make sure he is nice and confident for next season... 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My hat is off to you for seeing that unusual statistic. This young man is going to be a beauty. Can't wait to see him in the NHL. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dpn1 1,400 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Watching Jack and Jett together was amazing. They would be a not bad pairing on many in the Biggs. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devron44 6,610 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I like the pencilling of Power lol. Keep dreaming guys. Do hope we get a solid Dman though. Could fill out our defence quite nicely. Rathbone looking like a keeper. Glad he’s getting his feet wet in the AHL. Hopefully he’s a regular next year 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Junkyard Dog 10,205 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Nice. Future looks real good on the left side both at wing and D. Just need a stud RH RD or two and another stud RH RW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Benn -- Playing good this year and will be traded at trade deadline to playoff team ---- 4th rounder in return.... Hamonic, Myers, Benn add grit and toughness on the defence.... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

janisahockeynut 7,278 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I have had some nasty arguments on HF Boards over Rathbone in the past. My arguments have always stemmed around, Fox, and Marino and Rathbones play Either with them, or for them. and the reports of his results there of Now, I do really really like him as a prospect, but I do not want to see him up here this season The team is not playing well and to be frank, Juolevi needs the ice time Let him dominate the Ahl for the season and get him up for a look see, but put him back down(One step at a time!) This season, whether a loss or what ever, is not the time to mess anyone else up Let's do this right! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
