He will get stronger and is good enough to play a physical game if he wants too. I specifically compared him to Hedman, not Pronger. Dahlin is his teammate. I think it's inevitable he will pick up some snarl from Rasmus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the rest of the lineup is pretty even. Yeah, we caught Vasilevsky on a rare off night I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude was money. Three prime opportunities, three ice-cold kills. Next goal will make him the first Sabre in like 15 years to hit 40, and just the 3rd since Lafontaine and Mogilny were in their prime nearly 30 years ago.

I prefer Pronger but just want Power to add a dash of snarl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Quinn goal he'd probably like to have back, and he misplayed Boosh on the OT winner, but all three Thompson goals were a case of an unmolested top goal scorer with an open shot, and the Girgs goal was one of those deflections you just can't react to.

The 9-ish minute highlights on YouTube show up maybe 30 minutes after the end of the game. I almost never track games real-time, so this works perfectly for me. Sportsnet or NHL post the same video (more or less). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Housley's parting gift to the GM that was about to fire him. He moved Skinner back to the top line the last couple of games to help him get to 40 goals and his massive contract.

That said, I am excited to see how Tage keeps evolving. I'm not convinced we have seen his best. When you watch enough games you can many times call the goal before even gets to the shooter. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people will take such observations and forget about them within an hour, while continuously making definitive judgments on 18 year olds. It’s a funny world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just use the NHL app? That only does it give you the condensed game, it gives you an individual video of every goal scored. Goal videos are usually posted within a couple minutes.

SwampD Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 5 hours ago, Taro T said: Samuelsson and Power have both slipped slightly defensively since the around the AS break. Them figuring it back out would be hugely beneficial towards this playoff push. Pretty confident Muel will get it back. Power could be reaching that proverbial rookie wall. More hopefully, its coaching asking him to do more offensively, which is putting more on his plate. If it's that they're asking him to make that typical leap in a non-simplified game that is usually asked of 2nd year guys that rookies aren't asked to do, it'll be noticeable next season. And he can go back to what's been working this year if necessary. In the past, that has usually meant he's injured. Hope he's not fighting something.

Yup and agree with the bolded. Had thought the Samuelsson Power pairing was to help Owen out by giving him a steadier partner. But that experiment might have been to give Muel a lighter load on the 2nd pairing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
