Spot on. That's a young player mistake. He'll learn from it... assuming he puts the effort in to correct these things... who knows. Housley keeps referring to "preparation"... this is what he's talking about.... players taking that extra time to watch video, correct mistakes, pre-scouting, etc.. For example, in the Chicago post-game interview Eichel made it sound like he didn't know where to go with his penalty shot and was trying to get ideas from guys on the bench. That's poor preparation on his part. There is plenty of video available on Crawford, there is no excuse for not knowing where to attack him or any other goalie in the league.

It wasn't on Risto, although the shouldn't have waved at the puck. He was following his man across the net front. Lehner needs a way to pick those picks up I traffic. He's terrible at it.

He never has good games either. He's just there. Have you ever seen him make a slick pass for a goal? Or how about snap one in from the high slot? He reminds me of Christian Ruuttu, but with less offensive skill and worse defeninsevirly

You know what his sv% was on muffins from the point on the ice with 5s left in over time? .000 ..and that's all that matters.

I thought Larsson had a really good game... said no one ever.

College hockey is super fun, I always try to attend a game when I go Boston for work. Enjoy the game!

No, it means Buffalo will need to protect their young guns, like Eichel and uhhh..... ummm, Eichel and uhhhhh

My complaint is that this thread locks at 9pm, so I can't bitch about stuff in the late evening here.

Wonder how much they tinker with the expansion draft rules. Vegas obviously was given too much leash.

No team will take on his $5m/yr salary. BUF is stuck with that contract.. the only hope is he retires after this season, but I wouldn't bet on it.... Also, I find it interesting that Cody Hodgson's cap hit will go up to $800k/yr from 2019-2023. Seems like a long time.

Davidsson is a lock to make team SWE. As a 3rd rnd pick, Pu is already exceeding expectations. Team Canada's selection process is run amok with cronyism, I wouldn't put too much weight into his being left off the invite list. He averaged 1.36 ppg last season, this year he's at 1.31 ppg. No reason for alarm.... he'll be a nice fit in Rochester for years to come.. He's one of those guys that could blossom in the AHL after a few years, it's good to have prospects like him in the system.

That really stinks for Pu. Hopefully he can wipe the slate clean and avoid flushing this season down the toilet.

Yeah, that was me. This team won't get to the next level with guys like Girgensons and Larsson on the roster. They don't do anything particularly well, they can't score, or create offense and they can't defend well. They lack hockey IQ and quickness. I thought Brian Boyle would've been a perfect fit... he can defend, take draws, and brings a much needed veteran presence. https://forums.sabrespace.com/topic/24865-2017-free-agent-frenzy/page-6#entry960474

Ted Nolan's ceiling is a low hockey IQ hard working straight forward north south team.... it will only get you so far. Teams running more advanced systems will be able to shut them down. Housley's ceiling is... is..... uh... well... I.. um... yeah.

Drury was 27.
