[Avs425]

Coach Bednar's system, culture, mentality & competitive drive is not only streets ahead of the opposition, but industry defining.

This could double as a motivational poster

Sounds like a back-of-box movie quote. I'd see that movie

You're supposed to be at your lowest point in the 2nd act, not in the 1st! Fire him now.

So, are the Eagles icing an ECHL team right now?

Yet the Eagles are 12-5-1, rocking a .694 winning percentage, sit atop the Pacific and second in the West.

 

[Avsrule2022]

The Eagrizz have 19 points in their last 10 games while missing a lot of their top players

how is Olausson doing in the AHL?

About like you'd expect... some good, more bad, big time flashes. He's raw and not really close to ready.

He’s certainly a project, my concern is we don’t have the organization to shape him into what he needs to become. A player like Foudy can learn a lot from watching LOC and apply his own skill to try to the tenacity that LOC brings. With OO I don’t think tenacity will ever be taught to be part of his game. In order to succeed I believe he needs to hone his consistency and bulk up, in addition to polishing off his positioning. The talent is there and he’ll never be a perfect player, but if he can round into a 25 goal middle 6 guy I think we’d all take it.

Trade OO for sure. Wingers are locked up long term and Oscar looks like a long development process that we don’t have time for.

Not sure he has a ton of value... he was a late 1st rounder that had a below average +1 year and his +2 year is also looking below average so far. It would take a staff that really liked him in his draft year to value him as a 1st rounder.

JoJo mojo!

 

[Chiarelli]

Is annunen not playing ?

He’s played… just worse than JoJo.

Taylor Makar not doing too bad in his 2nd year with UMass stat-wise (6 pts in 12 games). Can anybody comment on how he is actually playing?

He'll never make the Avs. He is simply there for hostage negotiations when Cale decides to leave for Calgary in FA. That is his purpose.

 

[Pokecheque]

Eagles win again, a guy they signed to a PTO earlier today, Cedric Pare, scores the game winner.

Annunen with 27 saves on 28 shots.

YEah I'd rather trade him than the upcoming 1st.

 

[PAZ]

Annunen with 27 saves on 28 shots.

JoJo with a .932 SV% and Annunen with a .923 SV%.

Not the stats I would've expected considering half our AHL team is on the big club right now.

You’re going to look really silly when T. Makar is picking up his 5th Selke trophy

Can we start calling him "Cal"?

 

[forsbergavs32]

Looking forward to an Eagles season where the younger players have a bigger role. Is it a sign of things to come and a refection of a new philosophy from McDonald's influence?

Oh they’re getting a bigger role alright. To the NHL then to IR
