He is a pure sniper, who doesn't like to work hard. I've watched him sluff through practice after practice. He has great positioning and a great shot but doesn't bring that much else to a team. He doesn't hit much or hard, he circles above the line in the defense zone looking for a breakout. He'd do better to set his sights on the KHL. My $.02. - Grizzled Vet Wed, 21 Oct 2009 11:38:43 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/jeff-angus/2313-the-ahl-an-early-season-update#comment-2106 He seems to have picked things up too? 7 pts in 6 games... - tradejunkie Wed, 21 Oct 2009 10:42:26 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/jeff-angus/2313-the-ahl-an-early-season-update#comment-2105 Don't forget that Loktionov played only 51 games as he missed 17 due to injury (which cost him a spot in the Canada-Russia series and WJHC). Also, of his 66 points, over 40 (give or take) came in the final 30 games. I had the numbers before but he produced like an 80-85-point player in the second half. Yeah, toss in his playoffs and AHL debut, he's looking like a solid 5th-Round selection for Los Angeles. - hojusimpson Wed, 21 Oct 2009 10:14:36 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/jeff-angus/2313-the-ahl-an-early-season-update#comment-2099 Ha, how long have writers here been touting the merits of picking LA players? 3 years? I guess if you say it long enough you are bound to be right eventually. - StatsJunkie Wed, 21 Oct 2009 07:50:12 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/jeff-angus/2313-the-ahl-an-early-season-update#comment-2089 Great points! Would you take Loktionov over Mikael Backlund? Backlund looks like he's struggling in the A... Just thought I'd also add: Brett MacLean has 6 goals and 8 points in 7 games Bobby Sanguinetti has a goal and 7 points in 6 games - Andrew Tue, 20 Oct 2009 21:53:32 +0100
