I think Hall. Even though Seguin has pushed into first, I think Hall will retake it before seasons end.

From tsr draft preview
Take note that most scouting services will have Taylor Hall pegged as the top player available in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, the reality is that right now there really isn’t much separating some of the players at the top and they are essentially interchangeable.
Hall has been on NHL scouts radar for quite some time and really burst onto the scene with the Kingston Minor Midgets en route to being selected 2nd overall by the Windsor Spitfires in the 2007 OHL Priority Selection two seasons ago.
When you describe Hall’s game, the first word that comes to mind is explosive. Taylor Hall is an extremely good skater and has the ability to make things happen all on his own, very reminiscent of Pavel Bure in the mid 1990s. Hall is a very unique skater as he bends over almost at a 90 degree angle in his stride, but make no mistake, when he reaches his top speed there are very few that can catch him; and it doesn’t take him long to hit that high gear.
With that being said, there is some cause for concern in Hall’s game. He’s prone to making bad turnovers in transition, and sometimes he makes poor decisions with the puck in the offensive zone as well. While his plus/minus rating has been very solid the past two seasons, he is susceptible to being caught out of position, leading one to wonder how much playing for a strong Windsor club is sheltering some defensive concerns in his game.
This season will be a big one for Hall if he wants to be the first pick in 2010. Scouts will be looking for him to really break out offensively the way they expected him to last season. Hall has already showed that he can be a big time player in the playoffs, picking up both the OHL Playoffs and Memorial Cup MVP awards, but now is the time to show that he has the ability to put up big time numbers while proving that he isn’t a liability at the other end of the ice.
Central Scouting
just released an update of their list for the OHL, and now have him #1, just ahead of Hall
Seguin
Doesn’t matter who’s rated #1 at the end of the season.
Seguin is a legacy. He’s a lock if we have a shot at him. LOL!
Interesting point too, since he plays for Plymouth… hmmmm…….

Let’s put it this way. We’re bound to know him. And PK’s junior org thought enough of him to acquire him in the first place.
anyone listening to WRAL/ – Mike is getting pretty worked up. No pregame interview because of conditions last night – is that because of the travel schedule or because no one was fit to speak on the record?

Why am I drawing a blank on the Pits-Sutter collision? I had my Brandon iso-cam in full force last night but can’t remember it.
It was in the first period, in front of our net. I’m not sure there would be anything in the PBP that would reference it. I took pictures at the time but I think I deleted them, so not exactly sure when.

Leighton is in goal
I like him but I still feel it wasn’t Manny’s fault for last night. Mo’s “defense” left him high and dry.

Agreed
Maybe there was one Manny could have gotten that he didn’t, but the real issue was the D not blocking obvious give-and-go lanes.
We just got used to Ward’s incredible ability to make those saves anyways.

Wallin is good when it counts
he’s the guy with the stick in the crease bailing his goalie out.

logical assessment
why doesn't someone say to mo.....
the offense has got to be sharp and aggressive and the defense is NEVER on its heels waiting for the other team to score. be proactive. make the plays rather than waiting for them to happen to you. we’re setting ourselves up to be attacked. terrible strategy.

No,
When the Canes were on the attack, they didn’t take penalties as they controlled the tempo.
When they have to play “catch up”, then they get a trip to the sin bin.
Also, that was a great dive by the Sabres.

Looks like the players are back to not playing like a team but instead trying to do it all individually.
“Back to” it? When did they ever abandon that?

For about 2 week they were playing more as a team, connecting on passes, defending the net in front of Legace…. until 3rd period last night.
That's Mo's hockey
When he takes his players out of the game they are best at, attacking, then they try to play Mo hockey and aren’t sure where the others are

I would agree. It was basically at his waist, I don’t know how that sets off your balance, but then again it’s Buffalo.

we ply well with 2 man fore check because our biggest weakness is when the other team cycles.
this doesnt happen as much with 2 man forecheck because generlly the chances for the other teams are on the rush, and we are pretty good at stopping thatl, unless its odd man.
but when we set up and let them cycle around, we get scored on.

The only thing shocking would be lots of time for Brindy
When all else fails, read the instruction manual.
Well – it does show Mo is learning from the past.

called "take out the players on their team that are doing well"
something other teams practice on the Canes

I really wish they kept the stats for penalties drawn.

Defense is different...
They are not allowing possession….the collapse defense has been modified. Watch the defense peel off and attack the puck handler….
Ryan miller….seriously…let some of these awesome chances go in!

how to blow a five on three by the canes
stand in your corners and pass it around (make sure not to skate too much)
And don’t close in at all!

I’m leaving. I can’t take this – you all are enjoying this too much. I guess you’re revisiting anger.

Last night woke my ass up
about how Mo is fucking this team with his half-ass defensive strategies.
Excuse me if I bought two season tickets because of it.
When all else fails, read the instruction manual.
Where’s Aaron Ward? hurt maybe? He’s not out with Alberts

He just hooked Vanek.

A. WARD'S PENALTY
Brilliant hockey mind. Pinch in with all three forwards pounding the net; then after being beaten take a baby weak hooking penalty. That is why we have veterans, to show youngsters like Rodney — sort of, “Rodney, did you see that? never, ever, ever, do what Aaron Ward just did.”
i read the n&o today and apparenlty the players were SO pissed about last night,
theypre not going to let a loss happen agan
To be honest, the only really objectionable thing so far has been the PP.
