J0e Th0rnton Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 Hutson is so small its cute bwahaha. but if he keeps trying to stickhandle around like that someone is going to squish him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 9 Author Share Posted October 9 I see former Bolt Alex Barre-Boulet is on the Habs. Wishing him luck. He really tried to stick on the Lightning, but he just may be a sometimes scoring bottom sixer/PK'er when all is said n done. Plus, the TB forwards group harder to crack than Montreal's.

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 9 Author Share Posted October 9 You HAVE to be looking forward to the 'Celebrini Era' that will start tomorrow, eh @J0e Th0rnton? Not sure what the Sharkies can accomplish this year standings-wise, but at the very least, they need to re-instill the winning culture and mentality in that locker room. Chicago for instance, is still doing a heck of a lot of losing, and have been since getting Bedard...yet people keep going on about how they "are going to get better fast" I see no reason that same mentality can't be started with San Jose and Celebrini. And it starts in that locker room, the unity, and the will to win on the ice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it starts in that locker room, the unity, and the will to win on the ice Im actually perplexed at how bad Chicago's draft pool is aside from Bedard and Levshunov. Korchinski looks like a bust to me and Moore isn't great. Nazar seemed just ok from what i saw. And yeah, im excited to see Celebrini's debut. Realistically i want us to suck one more year and draft either Matt Schaefer or Logan Hensler. I don't want the kids to get caved in like the sharks were last year, but im ok with growing pain losing. Celebrini already looks REALLLY good to me. Smith will need granlund on his line to take the C pressure off. Smith seemed a step behind preseason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith seemed a step behind preseason Watching some of that Chicago-Utah game (damn that sounds weird!)....and the Blackhawks, well, they just defend really poorly. Until they get some semblance of team defense with regards to proper positioning and decision making, they will continue to lose no matter how talented a forwards group they put together. I mean, just some real braindead stuff I saw from Chicago yesterday. I know they are young, but there ARE some veterans on that team who should know better, and, it is up to the coaching staff to instill NHL caliber defending in all players, and I have not seen that from the Hawks for the last couple seasons. Hopefully, your Sharks will take the defensive ingredients much more seriously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 10 Author Share Posted October 10 Alex Lafreniere scores to give the Rangers a 2-0. Watching some of this while the Leafs and Habs are on INT. Boy does Laf need to have a good season....otherwise, the bust label may follow him around. He is on my fantasy team....and at one point, he was rumored to be traded to the Lightning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, your Sharks will take the defensive ingredients much more seriously. Our top 2 defensemen are Walman and Ferraro lol. I'm not confident Walman/Ceci Ferraro/Benning Thrun/Rutta Vlasic(press box) When Mukhamadullin is healthy he probably starts AHL until he gets up to speed. But he should replace Thrun. Dickenson, Cagnoni and Pohlkamp are D guys in the system I see a future for. Maybe Wallenius once he gets a bit older Cagnoni reminds me of Dan Boyle.

What he needs is to replace Trocheck on PP1 Scoring 28 goals and 57 points with nearly zero meaningful PP time is pretty damn good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw his improvements last season, but the NY media sure is tough on their players. Listening to them, you'd think Laf was akin to David Legwand or something.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 10 Author Share Posted October 10 Habs with all kinds of pressure in the Leafs' defensive zone but Stolarz is looking wall-solid! I know he is in for Joseph Woll due to injury, but might Stolarz actually be the better answer in net for Toronto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 10 Author Share Posted October 10 Haha... OEL not happy with the call against him. Tryna play the tough guy and take someone with him to the box. I don't know that there has been a more overrated, bloated, wtf are you smokin defenseman, since Kevin Shattenkirk or Tomas Kaberle, than Oliver Ekman-Freakin-Larsson!
