Vesey is playing against children. At least he's showing he's better than lesser competition. Still nothing to be too excited about yet, IMO.

 

Um, it's definitely something to get excited about. Maybe not too excited yeah, but the type of game he plays should translate well to the pros.

 

The team overall is still probably going to suck, but should be at fun watching him and Buch this season. I think Vessey will outscore Pavel by at least 20 points. Buchnevich might be as skilled, but he's way too floaty without the puck.

NHL Fluff Piece on who stood out in the tourney, but what ever:

Cristoval Nieves, C, New York Rangers: Nieves (6-3, 210) did a little bit of everything and was quick and strong in all three zones. He had one goal, three points and six shots in three-plus games. Nieves sustained an upper-body injury in the first period of the third-place game Tuesday and was unable to play the final two periods. He's set to begin his first full season in Hartford (AHL) after spending four seasons at the University of Michigan.

 

Jimmy Vesey, LW, New York Rangers: Vesey (6-3, 203) led all tournament scorers with five goals and 20 shots, and finished with seven points and a plus-1 rating in four games for the fourth-place Rangers. He has the speed and smarts and wasn't a bit intimidated when pushed to the limit in certain situations. Vesey consistently drove the net, an indication that he will do anything to create a scoring chance in the key areas.
