"Healthy, Hungry Hodgson"

[jstewismybastardson]

hopefully he can step it up this year ... and AV gives him a chance

Coho was at the Biosteel pr skate yesterday and he's training with all those young former OHL now NHL young studs. Lets hope some of that attitude rubs off on him

and i wouldnt mind him learning something from Claude (minus the face breaking cross check from behind talent set)

Hodgson has been training with former NHLer Gary Roberts, much the same as he did last year, and he’s also had something of a boost from former Conn Smythe trophy winner Claude Lemieux, who works with some of Winter’s clients on the mental side of the game. Lemieux, a neighbour of Wayne Gretzky for years down in California, has learned a lot over the years and looks to pass on that knowledge to younger players who have gone through some adversity

Cody Hodgson wearing number 9 at practice. Tony Tanti and Ivan Boldirev would be proud

Nice to see him finally healthy. It's been a long road for such a young player.

Congrats to him.

terrific. that's the reason I wore 9 as a kid.
I couldn't get 23 (Gradin) or 21 (Hlinka)

3 Miller Lites = 1 beer ( I rounded up )

Hodgson sure looked good last night. I thought he was robbed not to get one of the 3 stars. Probably our best forward.

 

[mattola]

that was a nice goal last night. good presence, vision and hand eye on the deflection.

he was very good last night.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

I thought he's been good both games

centring the helicopter line version 2.0 (he's a true rookie ... "he's carrying 2 duffel bags")

I still think Sturm will be toast by December (if not earlier)

 

[mooger_35]

The game Kesler returns Sturm is toast.

i smell a break out multi point game coming tonight ... look good, play good

Manny Malhotra did his best to help out. He played personal shopper, taking Hodgson to a mall just outside Columbus to start this road trip. Hodgson wore the new, sharp clothes he got with Malhotra to a team dinner that night. He was still smiling about it all Tuesday in Philadelphia. Boy, was he smiling.
“It took a lot of work and a lot of people’s opinions but we finally got him out of his Grade 9 wardrobe,” Bieksa quipped. “We got him into some professional hockey clothes. He’s looking good now. He looks confident, you can tell. He’s been the centre of attention for the past few days.
“We were tired of hearing guys tease him about his wardrobe. So, we finally did something about it.”
