LGR4GM Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Sometimes we deserve to have our faith rewarded. I had no faith tonight but maybe a glimmer of hope has been kindled. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeyhound Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) They looked and played like the Vegas Knights. Speedy, hardworking and tenacious. Full 60 min effort Edited October 4, 2019 by hockeyhound 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTS Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 I had a meeting that run through most of the second and third period (yeah really). I had the game on the 2nd screen. The team executed many of the things they started in the pre-season. It'd take me awhile to write up the nuances but in short, they are much more up tempo. They are contesting pucks at a higher rate. They have increased their puck support on the ice. They also are using that open space to drive play. It's okay to chip it to space if you are committed to winning the battle to that space. And.. confidence. I need to get back to my bourbon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksabre Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 During the WGR pregame they interviewed Jack and he talked about just trying to play his game and have some fun and try not to put all the pressure on himself, and what I saw tonight was exactly that. There's a fine line between being responsible for your own game by giving a good individual effort, and trying to do too much. I think a lot of guys these last few years have tried too hard to do too much on their own when what they needed to be doing was trying to do their jobs within reasonable bounds and trusting their teammates to do theirs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often times Jack won't be facing such stiff competition, but even when he is, I really liked how the majority of the other lines took the game to the Pens. Once we get Skinner going, I think it should work really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Johanson looked really good. Joker had numerous transition passes. Olofsson has an all around game, he can really pass. The depth on D stood out. Mitts/Sheary/Vesey can be exciting. Dahlin is sick. And the fourth line all played well, and well together. Really different look. A lot more confidence. Hutton held it together. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksabre Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 I don't think we could hang against a team like Vegas yet, but a team like the Pens is right in our wheelhouse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
