I should have said, "I, for one, will be sad if Quinn is not in DBQ.. "...which doesn't help but I won't try to speak for any of the parties involved.

...he doesn't appear to have lost a step...I took a video while he was on a PK, can't figure out how to upload it to this thread, but on this kill he went from putting one player through the boards after another, each time followed by the aprooving, "oohs & ahhs", from the crowd

Jenny and I just strongly believe you go through all of this just once-and you have to make the best of it.:D We both really like to have a good time wherever we are. In the 80's our little parties at the Station at the old Holiday Inn were legendary. :eek:

No worries, ladies and gents. Got from a reliable source that nothing to read in the JD'A scrathes in LP. He is a lock, Allain wanted a look see at other players.

FWIW, JD'A has risen from 11th to 8th in the Hockey's Future ranking of Toronto prospects. http://www.hockeysfuture.com/articl...remains_top_prospect_for_toronto_maple_leafs/

8. Jerry D'Amigo, LW, 19
5’11, 196lbs
Acquired: 6th Round, 158th overall in 2009

D’Amigo couldn’t have asked for a better season in 2009-10. The former sixth round pick is doing a great job of raising his prospect stock, and seems to be the type of player that winning teams love to have. He possesses the clutch mentality of stepping up in big games, and being a player who welcomes the pressure rather than one who runs away.

The 19-year-old was a standout for RPI this past year recording 34 points in 35 games to which he was named to the ECAC All-Star team as well as the ECAC Rookie of the Year. He won a gold medal with Team USA at the World Juniors while also scoring big goals throughout the tournament including two against Sweden in the semi-finals.

Although he’s accomplished he accomplished a lot in his freshman season, D’Amigo is expected to return to RPI for at least one more year.

"D’Amigo is expected to return to RPI for at least one more year."

With the number of signings as of late, Toronto/Brian Burke on the prowl, and his performance in LP, JD may be forced to depart early.

Holy Crap. That's why they scrathed him in LP. I wonder if that will influence BP. I exepcted Jerry back. Well, good luck to him. Although this is a tremendous loss, this shows the maturation process of SA's rebuild. We are getting players that are sought after only one year in Troy. I am stunned. Guys like Pat Cullen will have to step it up. Seth will figure it out.

If I'm not mistaken, we have 7-8 recruits this year. Only 6 graduees. Just based upon those numbers alone, I think Coach was preparing in case JDA and/or BP left after one year. He knew it was a possibility as well.

Seth will figure this out and this, although a loss, will cause the others to step it up. If Jerry doesn't want to stay at RPI it is best he moves on. Team chemistry is just as important as talent. I wish him the best and hope he isn't jumping too soon.

Hate to do this in the middle of Armegeddon but graduees is not a word but you're right, we'll be fine. Going to dinner tonight, will be interested to see if BP is there.
