Quick update on McNabb - point per game in Kootenay's series win over Moose Jaw. I'll let Seanothan do the dirty details.

Yeah, I really break my back for this board :P

Kootenay eliminated Moose Jaw in game 6 last night, so McNabb plays on, and as Phil said, he's a point per game so far

66. Brayden McNabb (6GP, 2G, 4A, 6P, +8, 8PIM) Kootenay advances to 2nd round

BZK and the Spitfires take on Erie tomorrow night in game 7 of that series. It'll be interesting to see what happens with Kassian if Windsor is eliminated...

Shame that we won't get more of Sundher this year. It looks like he's really coming along

Kassian would be eligible for Portland would he not?

Post subject:  Re: Sabres' Prospects In The Playoffs

Yeah, but there have been rumors that the Sabres don't want him on the Pirates roster until the fall, due to his supposed uninspired play since the World Juniors. But take that with a grain of salt.

That being said, I hope he makes it to Portland for the playoffs. I'm anxious to see what he can do against the pros

Yeah, that rumor comes from some I know a guy who knows a guy who knows/works around the Spits kinda thing.

Kris Baker from Sabres Prospects thinks Kassian will be given his ATO the minute the Spits are eliminated, which could be today.

With all do respect to Windsor and their fans, I sure hope they get bounced. It's time for BZK: Phase 2

Windsor beats Erie 5-4 in game 7, so BZK and the Spits live on...

13. Zack Kassian (7GP, 1G, 6A, 7P, -3, 12PIM)

Edmonton was 35 points back of Red Deer in the standings, so no real surprise there. Hopefully they'll trade him to a contender next season...

He had a good season statwise

Apparently Kassian has looked like shit this playoffs. Ouch.

Not much talk here about Brayden McNabb as he's helping Kootenay Ice in the playoffs. Look at his numbers for the season.
Season Team GP G A PTS +/- PIM
2010-11 Regular Season Kootenay Ice 59 21 51 72 25 95


Now his playoff stats
Season Team GP G A PTS +/- PIM
2011 WHL Playoffs Kootenay Ice 7 2 6 8 8 8

Looks like another solid offensive defensiveman in the system that has good size and skill. Now all we need is to draft a ton of offensive players this year and another goalie and the system should be looking mighty sweet.

McNabb isn't exactly an offensive defenceman. He plays a lot of minutes for Kootenay so he picks up a lot of second assists. He'll be a two way dman in the NHL at best. Probably more suited to be a defensive dman.

McNabb is an absolute beast, a workhorse in all situations. His fights and PIMS are down this year so he gets more ice-time. As the Ice go deeper into the Chynoweth Cup playoffs, he'll get more minutes.

Trust me, I love me some McNabb...I'm the WHL's biggest American cheerleader.

Which is just fine since we have Leopold, Grags, Sekera, and Myers who are usually involved offensively. He'll be a great fit in Buffalo.

A paring of McNabb-Myers in a couple of years???

That's very concerning

Just realize that it's the battle of the Braydens- Kootenay vs Saskatoon

Can't wait for McNabb to take Schenn to the woodshed

As sick as that would be, I'm thinking a pairing of Pysyk and McNabb in a couple years. Both will come into the organization around the same time. I think they even played together a bit at the WJC tryouts.

I would happily settle for that. That's a very, very solid 2nd pairing
