  1. Don't think theres a bigger waste of space than Moulson.
  2. Worst game from McCabe in some time.
  3. Really unimpressive Bs squad right now. They were really living off their PP.
  4. Awful sequence for McCabe and Frans there.
  5. Just watched the first: I'm one of the bigger Kane critics here but when he is on, he is on. It gives you hope that he can weave his immense individual skill set into the team game. Taylor Hall, with a similar forceful high-skill game, has done just that this year, and is a point per game player. Is there anything more enjoyable than Eich and Sam cycling the puck? The two are yin and yang in style, but man is it fun to watch them develop together. I don't have kids but I understand the true joy of fatherhood. Bogosian is a neanderthal on skates, all broad shouldered and hunched. He's mostly solid in the defensive zone but man is he awful on the pinch. Not too gifted offensively.
  6. Kane's game is so frustratingly counter productive
  7. Fine with our PP1, but the second unit perfectly showcases the lack of offensive depth on the team.
  8. Auston has looked very pedestrian so far; as has Tkachuk. Only two games in, but you can see AM getting frustrated. His puck control is all world, but his play and awareness around the net appears to be lacking. Looks to definitely be a step down from the skill of last WJC (which may go down as one of the highest skilled junior tournaments in recent history). Puljujarvi looks to be the top prospect after two games IMO, and I'd be ecstatic if we somehow lucked into the #2 pick.
  9. This Hawks broadcast is brutal. How many times can you comment on the crowd and Zemgus's weird "foreign" name?
  10. How does Reinhart take the puck away so easily?
  11. Eich is a baby giraffe. More awkwardness than elegance at this very early stage in his career.
  12. Reinhart is going to have some beaut assists over his career. The difference between his blind passes out of the corner and Kane's is massive. Talk about two different ends of the awareness spectrum
  13. Johnson in goal.
  14. My god what a beaut from Sam.
  15. Much better. And he is tracking tonight.
  16. Bouncy puck tonight. May be a couple ugly ones.
  17. The goals will come, the goals will come....
  18. Kane's game is square peg through round hole. Maybe its what we need with the finesse of the team. But it has been pretty frustrating (for me) in his short Sabre career.
  19. Thanks for the GDT guys. One observation from the last few games: Sammy Reinhart's shot. Not sure if it's been discussed but goalies seem to have trouble reading the puck off his stick. A much heavier shot than I noticed in Junior (limited scouting). As I'm sure with all here, I'm very excited to watch this line continue to grow tonight. They were the best trio on the ice after the first period last game and only stand to get better. Go Sabs!
  20. He was absolutely gassed. He's had a strong game.
  21. Uh-oh here comes the GIonta flames.
  22. Haha turnaround fadeaways from the blue line.
  23. I really hope Kane changes his puck on net mentality on the PP. His low percentage shots are often as good as a turnover.
  24. Eich is so strong with his poke check. The puck just stays on his tape on the takeaway. That plus his length will lead to a lot of goals on the forecheck. Very strong debut from Bogo.
  25. Reinhart looking stronger with the puck the last couple of games. Creative puckwork when pinned also keeps cycles alive.
