From Craig Custance’s blog in the Sporting News,
It’s good to be back at the rink every day, and the prospects event in Traverse City, Michigan has been impressive. The turnout has been great, with the stands packed for all the games. Each team has played two games, and today was an off-day with practices. Here are some early impressions on the teams and players:
- Statistically, St. Louis’ Patrik Berglund is not having as dominant a tournament as he did last year when he led all scorers with ten points, but I saw him score a good-looking goal yesterday coming down the left wall and firing one past a Minnesota goalie. One scout said he’s going to be a star and his reach really is impressive.

Berglund looked off in the first game, and underwhelming. However, he also didn’t seem fazed by it on-ice and just kept at it. I said elsewhere he seemed to have a bit of a swagger, despite nothing going for him. I’ll watch the 2nd game tonight on NHL Network, but sounds like he’s patient enough and will get going eventually.
And no comments on how good James Neal looked for DAL?
I’ll be curious tonight to see Brunnstrom’s 2nd game. He looked awful the first game… just completely lost out there.
