siddious Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Keep trying Gauthier.. one of these seasons you’ll get that cut to the net goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindG1000 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Man, some things just never change. Seeing #12 charge hard to the net and doing nothing with it is like riding a rage bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torontonyr Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 The sad thing is, the team we fielded today is better than some of those Zherdev squads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing #12 charge hard to the net and doing nothing with it is like riding a rage bike. The lack of support is even more disheartening. Nobody there with him at the goal mouth to pass to or get a rebound. I'll always like a player that can sustain pressure all on his own. That cut to the net should heed his linemates to surround the net or crash it to force that puck through. Nah. They stay by the boards or evacuate the zone instead of getting dirty.

But they guys with whom he's competing would not even have gotten near the goal on those plays. Like last year, JBrod looks like a better option than Hunt. Faster, better penalty killer, better potential to score a goal once in a while. I'm hoping Carpenter doesn't have this "I Played for Gallant Before" card, which you keep in your wallet like a Police Benevolent Association card and flash when you get pulled over for a ticket (or put on waivers). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I’d play rydahl and Vesey over any of those guys. Particularly hunt who is the worst player this team has had since lemieux. I haven’t even noticed carpenter.

RichieNextel305 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Halak looked sharp too. I think that’ll be a very underrated upgrade, having a legitimate backup goalie. Georgiev, as a backup, was awful. His talent level is there. But he needs to play in a stretch to look good. His job as a backup to arguably the worlds best goalie didn’t call for that, barring injury. When he played his one game in every 2 weeks, he looked rusty and sometimes took all night to find rhythm. On top of that, due to his belief that his talent level dictated more playing time, his attitude seemed to suck. It was a good breakup for both parties. He may well excel in Colorado, but it obviously wasn’t going to happen here. And having a veteran behind Igor who has endured everything the NHL can throw at him as far as playing time goes will do nothing but help IMO. Halak is a real pro and was a good signing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 One small complaint. Lafreniere is doing his gain the zone and curl mid way up the boards again. Not good. Kid line was at its best when they would all Gauthier it up and bring it to the net or down low. Trying to slow down the game and set up hasn't worked for Lafreniere, especially with that move. It's become his M.O. and teams eat him up on most attempts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great call @josh!!! 11 hours ago, Keirik said: Gauthier having a hell of a game. Seeing him in that 12 is so reminiscent of the great Matt Puempel days.

I was pretty impressed with Halak last night. Good positioning and pretty good rebound control. I keep forgetting he's 36, not fucking 86!! I think he's going to be a very capable backup. ...I'm thinking he probably plays about 25-30 games this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valriera Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Watched this game today, I will add to my statement above that VK looked way better than first game. Maybe he was nervous but looked more comfortable here just didn’t get on the scoresheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatrosss Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 i'd say the three best forwards were Troch, Vesey, and VK last night. Laf was right there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
