Out of Gerbe, Ennis, and Kennedy, who played the best all around game? |

They all had good moments, and sloppy moments. I dont think any of them will make the NHL roster based on what I saw last night. Gerbe proved 2 things to me, he's got nothing for vision in transition, and has no desire to shoot the puck at this level for some reason. Kennedy had some sloppy transitions, and 2 or 3 bad passes in the zone. Ennis needs to figure out he's tiny compared to NHL defensive men, and stay the hell away from them. He got worked over a couple of times last night. Ennis has tons of upside though. Our best AHL/Rookie last night was Myers, and a close 2nd, and I mean a CLOSE second was Kostka, he played with grit, poise, touch, and great positional play. He is looking like a true steal if he continues to progress. |

Ennis, but it wasn't by much. The kid is the quickest of the three, and shows the most tenacity, but like Jay said - he needs to realize he's much smaller than everyone else. He definitely shows the most promise of the three. |

Kostka was also mentioned as looking good by a couple people at work today. Myers looked clumsy, they felt; coordination still not caught up to his enormous size. I will judge for myself once I have viewed them.... |

Kostka did look good. Looked better than some guys higher up on the depth chart, as probably stated by your co-workers and such. Myers didn't look clumsy at all, really. He was pretty smooth with his moves, honestly - Gragnani looked goddamn clumsy, especially when he managed to flip himself backwards onto the ice while trying to get either on or off the bench. |

Yes; I was told Gragnani started out okay; but looked like a career AHL type of guy as the game wore on. |

He looks like a young, and I mean YOUNG Marc Andre Bergeron or maybe even Joe Corvo. Career 4-6 defensive man, but excellent special teams player. **edit** To add to that, he was also going against full NHL veteran lines. Believe he was skating against that Clark, Knuble, Giroux line, which looked like a bunch of monsters on the ice by the way. |

Ennis, but I thought they all showed a lot of heart, and a good hustle was put forth by all. |

Yeah, he was apparently pretty good on the third Washington goal as well..... |

They should have! He was "strong" on Detroit's goal tonight. |
