Torts: Sanguinetti Not on the Same Plane as Del Zotto & Gilroy

Michael Obernauer at the Blueshirts Blog has this quote from John Tortorella on Bobby Sanguinetti and how he's come along in his offensive game...

"Not as much as a Del Zotto and a Gilroy. We know it's in him, we tried to give him some power-play time the last game, and we'll probably give him some more in the next game or two to give him a look.

Right now I don't think he's on the same plane as the other two kids in that offensive part of it. Sometimes maturity at that position, in all facets of the game, is different for different people. But he's certainly put himself on the map here as far as me getting to know him as a player. I didn't know anything about him."

...i guess we know who the front runner is for the sixth and final defensive spot.

the picture there is of Grachev,no? Sanguinetti wore 54 and didn't have a goatee thing...

I found the photo on Google images. I think it's from last year's camp. But it is Sanguinetti.
