Key Words: Rob Schremp. Wilkes-Barre. Skills Competition.



My girlfriend just dropped a doozy to my friend Nate, a Flames fan:

"So, you guys have anybody that good who's not allowed to play on your team?"

Glove tap to Mike.

Comments:

Sure that's great, but the Oilers are so pathetic right now they'll be lucky to get to a shootout on this road trip.
 


Yeah great. Two illegal goals, but I did like the last one. Too bad this stuff doesn't make you a good player.
 


Yawn. Ever watch beer league warmups? You can't swing a cat at a golf course without hitting some kid doing Tiger Woods' golf ball tricks. Schremp is just doing Sidney Crosby.
 


It would have worked better if set to Real American.
 


Too bad this stuff doesn't make you a good player.

It was a joke. Get over yourself.
 


riversq's comment was a joke too. get over yourself.
 


"So, you guys have anybody that good who's not allowed to play on your team?"

AHL healthy scratch quality? Fortunately, Calgary's farm team is good enough to pitch in for real in the NHL. Nothing would make me happier for you guys to call up Schremp and use him for a few games -- do you know just how bad he is at playing actual honest-to-god hockey?
 


yeah that guys gonna be one awesome lacrosse player for somebody
 


riversq's comment was a joke too. get over yourself.

Blasphemy! Why hasn’t this comment been deleted?

And the fact that some 13 year old on youtube did basically the same stuff makes this far less impressive.
 


I see this and its fun alright but I sure hope he's studying game film and working on his skating as hard as he apparently works on his tricks.
 


Somehow watching this reminded me of that scene in Indiana Jones where a guy whiffs around a sword for a few moments right before Indy takes out a gun and shoots him.
 


Watching it again, the third goal where he shoots the puck off his own skate is rather amazing.

He'll look good for us next year when we trade awya Brad Winchester.
 


key words: healthy scratch...?
 


I know a guy who can juggle fire AND knives at the same time...
 


Healthy scratch yes, but keep in mind he's an Oil prospect playing on a farm team shared with Pits and they have more control over who plays on a nightly basis.

I had the pleasure of watching him in London and while he has bagage, there is no doubt he has offensive skills. Give him time on the skating and defence.
