There are so many things I’m interested in debating. My visceral reaction to the news of Eichel signing isn’t among them, though.

Possible. Did you see the post above? Hmmmm. -
Sure.

McDermott doesn't care for, and apparently doesn't need Marcell. It's interesting. The Whaley way clearly contemplated paying a king's ransom to one elite big-boy DT. It's clear that McDermott does not see the need to do the same.

Between that and the quote someone posted yesterday about how he wants to know some stuff about his coach as a person -- he's an interesting dude. The video posted today of the circle after practice - Kane was the first one to reach Eichel in the middle. Eichel has more than a little of the Boston arsehole swagger to him. I can see him liking Evander's outlook on life. Concur. I've had three chances over the years to differentiate between a ~$150 bottle and a ~$25 bottle. I'm 0-for-3.

K Between the "great news, but..." folks (there were a few) and a mod's "nbd" take, I'm somewhat at a loss at how there's not a more unanimously celebratory vibe up in here. I think there's a better than 50% chance that the franchise just locked up the player who will come to be known as the greatest Sabre and greatest hockey player ever to play for the team. (At present, those titles are held by two different players, IMO.) In light of that:

For the same reason that I came to admire Watson for playing big in the biggest games, I soured on Jackson after tuning into his game against Clemson.

I legit LOL'd. -
^ Okay. I suspect the team’s scouts are looking at lots of players, yeah?
-
Wut.

FFS, anyone coming with the “great news, but ....” C’mon.
-
So happy. More later.
-
Well now wait a got-damn minute.

Falk and Rodrigues are placed on IR. So, that's the roster. For now.
-
Yep.

It's been a disappointment how Nylander's camp and preseason were short-circuited by injury.

Jack Eichel Contract Extension: Talks Occuring
That Aud Smell replied to WildCard's topic in The Aud Club
And that thing where he seems to rest on each outside edge of his blades. That's not textbook, I don't think. But it's awesome. -
Jack Eichel Contract Extension: Talks Occuring
That Aud Smell replied to WildCard's topic in The Aud Club
Didn't mean to imply otherwise. Didn't mean to say anything inconsistent with whatever that is. I don't know enough about skating to know, but I've heard two or three people make comments about he's got some unusual aspect(s) to his technique(s). What I'd heard is consistent with what NB posted above. -

I love that clip. I also love how the still-shot Kelly uses several times has Eichel pictured with that odd, fundamentally "unsound" thing he does with his skates. (NFW the kids are taught to do that -- Eichel just developed it on his own because he's maybe sorta not entirely from this planet.) -
I guess we should have seen that coming.
