I was thinking about this earlier. It will never make me like Pierre but it will be nice to not just listen to him jizzing over other players all night.

R_Dudley Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 That was a great first period. That's the team we saw at the beginning of the streak. Puck possession, shots suppression, more zone time in theirs than ours and finishing checks taking away TO time and Space.... 2 more periods please.

Last point on this - I don't think they were major adjustments, maybe half and inch each year. But I think of golf (which I'm more familiar with) where I have lengthened my clubs as a taller guy. I could probably shorten my irons by a half inch or so and not notice, but if I keep doing it eventually those shots that I used to hit pure are now topped and I suddenly look horrible. I don't know where that tipping point is, but I think we're seeing it with Jack now. Edited December 5, 2018 by Samson's Flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 5 minutes ago, PASabreFan said: The quote was vague. But if his stick has been shorter one season to the next, wouldn't we have seen issues last year and the year before? I'm just not buying it. It sounds like excuse making. If it's that big a problem, I'm guessing he would have changed back by now. They were literally giving like a gear update weren't they? Why would he talk about that if he wasn't shortening his stick for the upcoming season? It wouldn't make any sense at all given the context of their discussion. "Oh hey I shortened my stick two summers ago" And I dunno, but I have about 5 hockey sticks of varying sizes, but within reason for someone my height, and 3 of them are interchangeable and the other two are unusable, and you would never be able to pick which two are unusable for me, it just has to do with what I'm used to, and I play a lot less than Jack. I don't think there's a linear relationship between stick length and ability or inability to do particular things with them. Excuse making for what? What is more reasonable? That Jack still hasn't figured out how to pick corners with a new twig, but is still a hockey player pacing for more points than he's ever had and doing really well in tight with it? Or that Jack just plain forgot how to do two weirdly specific skills, stickhandling in open ice and taking one-timers? But is great/fine at everything else?
