What's the point of having Turcotte/Grundstrom dress up if you're just going to play them 3 minutes almost halfway into the game? That's less than what MacDermid would get.

Sweet, look at Kaliyev grind, just like we all wanted.

surely he'll eventually grind his way to the 2nd PP unit ahead of trevor moore

surely!

 

[AmadiosAmigos]

Maybe its the number but Bjornfot reminds me of a faster Scuderi and Im digging it

That's the Kings development system. Play less hope for more. Agree brutal.

What is Doughty doing?

 

[AmadiosAmigos]

Try and be specific, who do you think should replace 24vyear old Lizotte?

JAD 10000%

 

[tny760]

??? doughty you ok?

 

[lumbergh]

Like somebody dropped his controller.

Why? Other than he was a 2nd round pick....

Turcotte has played about 3 minutes so far almost halfway through the game....

It's the same self-fulfilling prophecy they've done with the others...keep lowering their playing time so they get cold on the bench and play two shifts a period, then send them down going 'well they weren't making a difference.'

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Man, so close for Lizotte and kaliyev, would really feel a lot better if they popped one more goal in soon.

 

[Mats26]

Grundstrom Turcotte have zero chemistry. Go to same areas all the time.

The only thing I can think of is Koala has formed an opinion on Turcotte in practice or during the preseason.. I have seen nothing in his game that warrants getting sat or anything unresponsible.. he wins all his faceoffs and is fast to the puck.. no idea what the problem is

He's eclipsed 4 minutes now. That should be enough to boost his confidence.

His play last year was perfect for the role we are discussing. His ceiling is far beyond Lizotte.

 

[kilowatt]

What a damn forecheck by Turcotte

 

[lumbergh]

Really enjoying the Durzi-Bjornfot pairing.

 

[Telos]

Quick is out there saving lives. Kopitar owes him a couple already.

 

[lumbergh]

Oh what a goal!

 

[Telos]

Wow.

 

[AbsentMojo]

hahah that was sick

 

[lumbergh]

Tha accidental Forsberg

 

[Choralone]

Pepe!

 

[HookKing]

Damn that was newyndyk like or however the hell you spell his name.

 

[AbsentMojo]

Great effort.. doesnt hurt that Jones is garbage
