[Lee]

On the block:

Francois Bouchard
Mark Mitera
Ryan Stoa
Michael Stone
Benjamin Conz
Patrick Mcneill

Looking for 2012 picks.

[Lee]

Brunnstrom gone, a couple people asking about Stoa.

[Shep]

STOA for 4th

[Lee]

Already been offered a mid-late 2nd

[Scott]

You should take that, Stoa's terrible.

[Nick]

Is he though? or is the jury still out?

[Mike]

Saw some good things last year. That 2nd, by the way, was my offer.

[Lee]

Make or break year for him. I'd rather take a chance on him that trade it for what might be close to a 3rd round pick. Mid 2nd? He's yours.

MInnesota 2nd and he's yours, Mikey

[Scott]

He's a big time floater.. he has a great shift then floats for 3-4 afterwards. And this is when Stoa's trying to prove his worth and AHL fodder at this point. I just don't like his attitude towards the game. He's a big body and when he wants to, can change the game physically. He definitely has the ability though.

[Nick]

Big body-player breaking out @ 25, I've never heard of that.

[Scott]

Its possible for sure.. I just don't see it happening.

I'd have to strongly disagree with this. Stoa is known for being a good team mate, leader and digger. IMO if anything he is struggling with the fact he has always been bigger and stronger than most of his opposition. If he fails to make the NHL it is because his skills don't translate to the nhl, it has zero to do with work ethic issues.

Well, I'm just going off of the 10 or so Avs games I watched him in last season. He'd have a good shift where he'd hit guys, he'd get a decent chance to score.. then almost the rest of the game he'd look lost, not do much at all.. even on the PP. I was really unimpressed. I think he definitely has the talent.. I liked him as a prospect as I've had him in this league.. but after observing him last year a number of times I thought it best to move him for something before he busts.

[Lee]

Like my Brunnstrom deal, I'll also accept prospects.

I can agreed with this. He wasn't impressive but I think it's because his lack of elite level talent. I like his worth ethic. I also had him for quite some time, over a year I think, and then dealt him once I started watching him. Who knows though, Stewart was aweful until one day he just put it together. It could happen for stoa.

[Lee]

Bump. Come talk to me.
