Minnesota-Denver Friday on NBC Sports Net
Hello again Litter Box Cats readers and Panthers fans. My name is Nathan Wells and I'm the assistant editor over at SB Nation Minnesota. One of the things I do is cover Gopher hockey and get the chance to see and talk to Nick Bjugstad and Kyle Rau.
Instead of giving an update on both Florida prospects like I normally do, I thought with tonight's game against Denver being nationally broadcast on NBC Sports Network (formerly Versus) it would be nice to give a quick scouting report on what to look for. With the Panthers off, it's still a good night to watch some hockey (unless you're cool and have Friday night plans) because almost every Florida college prospect is on national TV. My focus is on the Minnesota-Denver game but Connor Brickley (Vermont) plays in the early NBC Sports Net game, Corban Knight (North Dakota) and Joe Basaraba (Minnesota Duluth) face off on CBS Sports Net and Zach Hyman (Michigan) is on BTN if that's available.
The Gophers-Pioneers game is the biggest, however, with five Florida prospects playing. Denver has Drew Shore, Sam Brittain and John Lee with Rau and Bjugstad playing for Minnesota.
More on Minnesota-Denver after the jump discussing how to spot and what to look for in the players.
Ed. Note: Feel free to utilize this post as an Open Thread for this evening's games.
Some quick basics:
19-9-1 Minnesota Golden Gophers vs. 15-9-4 Denver Pioneers
Game Time: 10:00 PM EST Friday February 10th
TV Schedule: NBC Sports Network (find channel here)
Announcers: Gord Miller & Mike GreenlayLocation: Magness Arena, Denver, CO
What to Look For With The Florida Panthers Prospects:
Minnesota:
#27 C Nick Bjugstad - Plays on a line with #7 Kyle Rau and #24 Zach Budish (Nashville Predators). Leads the Gophers with 33 points and is second in the nation with 21 goals. Besides the scoring touch, look for Bjugstad's chemistry with Rau, vision with making passes and even smaller things like face-offs (he went perfect over two periods a couple weeks ago).
#7 LW Kyle Rau - Things to look for with Rau are his ability to crash the net for a guy who is 5'8", 170 lbs, use his speed in the corners and two-way hockey. He can come out of nowhere to take away an odd-man rush opportunity.
Denver:
#15 C Drew Shore - Plays on a line with #12 Ty Loney and # 18 Luke Salazzar. Leads the Pioneers with 40 points, which is fourth in the nation, and goals with 17. He's the top-line center but DU's top-six is more of a 1A and 1B (with Drew's brother Nick centering that line). Besides being a top playmaker and scoring option, look for Shore's play in all three zones.
#1 G Sam Brittain - The talk out of Denver is that Brittain will be playing both games this weekend so it would be a shock if he's on the bench. He's only played twice this year after postseason knee surgery so keep that in mind in terms of lateral movement and playing in a butterfly position.
#5 D John Lee - Senior defenseman who spent last weekend playing with #21 Joey LaLeggia. Lee is the more defensive of the two with 11 points to LaLeggia's 29 and is not afraid to get dirty. The physical battle between the two teams is one of the question marks this weekend but regardless look for Lee to be a guy who will block shots and step in when needed.
Hope that helps everyone and as always, if you have questions feel free to ask them in the comments or find me on Twitter @gopherstate. Enjoy the game tonight...or tomorrow on DVR if you're cool and have Friday night plans.

Basaraba just got a 5 + game in Duluth. Horrible hit from behind on Nick Matson and really deserved the game misconduct.
North Dakota’s up 2-0 towards the end of the 2nd as UMD looks like they’re imploding.

Yea I saw it, looked worse on replay. Dangerous because the defender was about 5 feet off the boards in that “danger zone” where a check can turn in to a broken neck. Refs got the call absolutely correct, otherwise a great game. That second goal for ND was because of that horrible turn over, someone didn’t pick his head up before the pass

Love it, can’t wait to see both of them in red playing in Sunrise. 2nd period I would like to see Bjudstad get a little open ice and see what he can do with it, and with Shore the opposite, kind of intrigued to see how he plays in even tighter spaces, corners and such with the puck

Exciting to get a preview of our top picks. Hope Drew Shore signs with us again.
Seeing Red since 1994.
This is likely unequaled in Florida prospect history. And Shore is a Sexton pick, while Lee roots back to Martin. Three wildly varying regimes.

Just a little bit. Not sure where the “6 shutouts in 13 games” Patterson went but that’s a horribly soft goal. Second sharp-angle goal given up in two games.

Ok, talking to a bud whos a hawks fan and shes always saying how badly they need a d-man someone who can work with their young guys and help them develop etc.. So I said to her I would trade Weaver and a 2nd rounder for Bolland and prospect Brandon Saad. Instantly got a no from her.
Is my trade that far off or do people really just underestimate Weavers abilities that much?

I’ll never understand the love for Bolland: $3.375M last year for 37 points (15 goals) in 61 games, and his numbers mirror that this season.
Whatever…really think Weaver is That Guy? They are missing a Campbell.
Litter Box Cats - Your tarp-free Florida Panthers Colossus
by Donny Rivette on Feb 10, 2012 11:53 PM EST up reply actions
Campbells game suffered big time because of kieth and seabrook whom they seem to refuse to split up on the top pair so having a player such as him on the lower pairings with younger guys will do nothing but hurt his game while someone like weaver wont have his game changed much as he’s constantly back on defense covering the play no matter who hes with.
Bolland is also very good defensively and had played with steeger and kopecky in the past and made up a very good line for them so he’d already have some chemistry if he were to come over.
Plus his contract is no worse than Upshalls who when healthy was on pace for 4 goals and a 12 point season while making 3.5 mil
by Rob PKane McMahon on Feb 11, 2012 12:04 AM EST up reply actions
plus last season upshall only had 34 pts with 22 goals.
by Rob PKane McMahon on Feb 11, 2012 12:04 AM EST up reply actions
Upshall has yet to play more than 61 games in a season, and that’s only happened twice since 2005-06.
Agreed on Bolland’s defensive assets as a forward – a younger Madden – so the guy’s got a long career ahead of him.

I cant bear to think of the defense without Weaver(though Ellerby is becoming a good defensive defenseman . We need to find a way to clone him before he retires, as a Panther, as would be fitting.

Once you pass the puck, you shouldnt expect to get hit A) 3 seconds afterwards B) from behind of all places, because its a dirty play. I’d expect Rau to get suspended, which he would deserve. Just a dumb play.
