Neo Posted July 1, 2018 Report Posted July 1, 2018 Extrapolating a career from one practice session is, well, unbelievably foolish. Wouldn’t it be great, though, if Pekar becomes the next Peca? The tweets and articles all point to skill applied with an edge. Quote
Doohicksie Posted July 8, 2018 Report Posted July 8, 2018 Interview with Pekar. I love it. When asked about the physicality with Dahlin, there was a twinkle in his eye, which reminds me of a trait in some of the best pests in the NHL comparing them to wrestling a pig: "You both get muddy, but the pig likes it."

Expand These things seem to pop up from time to time with the european imports. If it is in fact the case, I'll give the kid credit for sticking with Miami instead of just jumping to UCONN instead. And before anyone asks, I mention UCONN because they took on a couple guys a few years ago after they couldn't meet other school's admission standards.

Expand I'd suspect there's either a slight language barrier or that school stuff from europe may have not transferred over to US standards as well as they hoped. Think of it like a credit issue with colleges. Edit: Ahh, crap, you're talking about participation in camp. The college guys are free to participate in those all they want. They just can't sign.

Scottysabres Posted September 22, 2019 Report Posted September 22, 2019 With all those UFA contracts due up next season, I strongly suspect this kid will be in the wave of "replacements" that will be on the Sabres roster next season. Just a hunch. Quote

Expand But he was in the USHL when drafted and only went to the OHL after that. Was he even drafted in the OHL or is he considered a Euro player “on loan” to the OHL? Those guys, like Nylander for example, don’t need to complete their OHL eligibility before going to the AHL. Its possible that I’m wrong, but I was always under the impression that Pekar could go to the AHL at any time. Quote
