Games start back up tomorrow! Hopefully he's rested and ready to dominate the Pelicans (who have been awful this season).

He'll be rising in our rankings!

From Dan Stewart's latest installment of our draft section:

Quote:
For the past three years, anytime one talked about the European class of 2010, the mighty mite Mikael Granlund demands attention because he possesses elite talent, called ”the Finnish Sidney Crosby” by a daring few.

All this hullabaloo was blown way out of proportion until this season when the five-foot-nothing dynamo has lit up the top Finnish men’s league, producing over a point-per-game, in his first full season. Once considered a late first round or even early second round prospect because of his size, some are considering him in the top-5 due to his impressive early season performance thus far against men in his countries top pro league.

You, too, might want to update his height to 5'10" and I think he's heavier now as well.

Also, your staff might need to watch him few more times if you're about to call him a phenomenal skater (on the other article).

He have had some problems with his inner thighs (groins?) Should not be anything serious though. They just don't want to take any risks.

Probably just a groin pull. Those aren't too good. I've had them before. But they do heal up really well and fairly quickly... He'll be back by next game hopefully if that's the case.

5'0'' and 5'10'' are not the same. I know it was hyperbole, but seriously, look at your pinky finger. He's that close to being six foot. If he were five foot five, I wouldn't be *****ing about the comment.

It seems that Granlund will be back in the lineup next week.

Forget Mum and Dad, he should show up at the draft with those three as his entourage.
