August 31-in-31: St. Louis Blues
Top Ten Prospects #1 Ivan Barbashev, C – Chicago Wolves (AHL) Barbashev seems likely to be playing 3C for the Blues with Patrik Berglund injured. He made positive impressions in his stint in the NHL. He is the type of two way center the Blues depend upon to maintain [...]
Prospects Rambling: Alexander Kerfoot/Eeli Tolvanen/Igor Ozhiganov
The Kerfoot watch is over. It seemed a lock for many months that their 2012 fifth-round pick was not New Jersey-bound, trekking the unsigned draftee-UFA path that led ex-Crimson linemate and Predator selection Jimmy Vesey last year to Madison Square Garden, but now that it’s official it’s less a punch [...]

Rossy’s Prospect Ramblings – February 11th
Analysis of the Buffalo-Winnipeg swap, breaking down Craig Button's new draft rankings and a look at the Calder Trophy race.
Thursday, February 12th
Let’s get straight to the big news that shook down Wednesday afternoon with Evander Kane and Zach Bogosian headed to Buffalo in a trade. Kevin Cheveldayoff did a miraculous job in a trade where his hands were tied (Kane being a diva with a questionable character and then add in the fact that he was out for the remainder of the season). As I was reading the return for Kane, I kept getting more and more impressed.

College gems, prospect analytics and more...
Edit: Evander Kane has been traded to Buffalo, and part of the return are prospects Joel Armia and Brendan Lemieux. Their profiles have already been updated to reflect the trade.

Ryan Murphy will be out four weeks with a leg injury. He had been playing much better as of late, and looked to have secured a spot in the NHL with 7 points in 21 games and improving posession numbers. Hopefully this won't be a long-term injury for the former 11th overall pick. Especially if Sekera leaves, Murphy should be able to secure powerplay time and a consistent top-four role next season. While the Hurricanes aren't the greatest team, there is enough talent to support two fantasy relevent defensemen.

Brendan Perlini has had a pretty great week with eight points in three OHL games for the streaking IceDogs. He is sixth in OHL points per game with 40 points in 26 games. Arizona's 12th overall pick this past June has really stepped into another gear recently, after a broken hand kept him out to start the year.
