Anybody that lowers the price of a guy with more ES goals than anyone on your team over the past two seasons to a 4th round pick probably shouldn't be in your on-ice plans haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The center of the hockey universe and Bettman’s hill to die on, treated differently in naked cap circumvention. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 I do wish Tage would ease off the toe-drag a bit - that isn't going to fly nearly as much with NHL defensive sticks (the leafs don't have any of those) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayhaps wait until he scores some regular season goals before the chest thumping? We're what, 2 years removed from Guhle looking like a camp superstar, and now he shouldn't even make the team. 1 minute ago, Randall Flagg said: I do wish Tage would ease off the toe-drag a bit - that isn't going to fly nearly as much with NHL defensive sticks (the leafs don't have any of those) Tage has better puck skills than I was led to believe he did, but it does seem like he thinks he's better with it than he actually is. Regardless, I'm glad he looks like more than just a tall guy with a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is, however, very much mocking the “woe is me, we traded for a player I havent watched or heard much hype about!” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) I believe situations in general have enough nuance, so that in this one people can appreciate Tage's preseason and be sickened by the artificially constructed deadline sell-off (which is also what the Sens did with EK - you get spanked when you paint yourself into this corner) completely ignoring an identical-but-worse comparable trade from the season before in which the GM waited longer, into the season, made the playoffs, and got more for a worse and more disgruntled player than ROR, without the locker room falling apart. Which is a take consistent with that side's view of the trade, despite attempts made months later to paint the take as dull and simplistic internet trash Edited September 22, 2018 by Randall Flagg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has been said plenty, he'll need some time. He's definitely not ready to center against the best in the league.

Sabel79 Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 For all the plaudits he gets, Kadri does not skate well if anything other than a straight line is required. Just an observation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) Tage with another overconfident bit of puck movement there. Overall though, a good effort by a bunch of guys who aren’t expected to make the team but arent ready to go to Rochester quietly.
