GDT: 2022 Rookie Faceoff @SJ TechCU Arena (9/16/22 - 9/19/22)

[Axl Rhoadz]

Are they streaming this off an iPhone camera?

Or am I having a stroke?

been the same dogshit quality since this tourney started...

 

[Sol]

Helenius Has a really good game

 

[Gjwrams]

Good to see the Kings Powerplay Is systematically sound.

 

[Sol]

What a bizarre goal. Lol. The ghost of Quick possessed him

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

1st point for Byfield = he's been temporarily lifted from bust status

 

[Sol]

Byfield looking stronger on his skates this season.

 

[BringTheReign]

Good follow-up shift from the Byfield line after the goal as well. He had a few nice moves coming out of the corner to shake coverage and make a cross-slot pass.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Byfield continues to stand out among everyone else on the ice. He looks to be at a different level compared to everyone we’ve seen in this tournament.

 

[redcard]

Byfield now a point per game over his last one games.

 

[Sol]

Are you f***ing kidding me I’m so f***ing sick of Brandt Clarke being targeted.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Damn Clarke draws another call because of a POS play by the opposing player. Clarke down but did get up again, on the bench now.

Dude is like a marked man this weekend.

 

[King'sPawn]

Byfield now a point per game over his last one games.

Incidentally it was one of his sloppier passes that Jamsen was able to recover.

 

[Sol]

They should put Byfield in a shooting lane rather than being a passer. His best skill is his shot. Doesn’t seem right that he isn’t roaming using his spot and being open for a shot.

 

[BigKing]

Grans has looked pretty rough this afternoon.

He has been one of my "package this guy now for help at another position" guys. He may continue to develop and be a stud but he also might always be a mess in his own zone.

We can't just hold on to every prospect until they have zero value.

 

[Sol]

Sharks have been trying to goon it up all game.

Good stuff Lawrence

 

[Cook24]

Lawrence giving it back. I like it…

 

[SaltyElkHunter]

Deduct a point from Mr. Lawerence

 

[AbsentMojo]

First time seeing Helenius...Id put him on the team.. he's got wheels, always goes to the net and people bounce off of him. So happy he is in the system

He plays like a 4th line veteran already. Coaches are gonna love him his whole career.

 

[King'sPawn]

Top 3 this tourney is pretty easy:
Byfield
Clarke
Helenius

Kid is barely 20. Lots of room to grow. Can't teach the physical tools that he has.

 

[Sol]

One of the things I’d really like byfield to work on is his puck handling

 

[Sol]

All Helenius needs to do is turn one of the sharks into a punching bag and he will be a fan favorite

 

[AbsentMojo]

He plays like a 4th line veteran already. Coaches are gonna love him his whole career.

Exactly the element that is missing - height and grit.. and has speed... they'd have to waive someone to. make room, but maybe it will happen.

He looked good at the WJC and was on the ice for important shifts at the end of the gold medal game. So far he looks to be on track to becoming the player they hope him to be.
