2024-25 Roster Thread #1: The Beginninging

What a dumb f***ing thing for him to say

It’s just part of Tortorella’s schtick. No one knows how to play this game unless he shows them how. He’s the genius in the room. It’s the same act that got him fired in Vancouver and New York.

I have a ton of faith in Brad Shaw getting through to Drysdale. The guys apparently love working with Shaw and have a ton of respect for him. Fingers crossed.

They had/have tons of respect for Lappy as well and we all know what he has to offer from a coaching perspective

He clearly appears to be able to keep up in the NHL and is, even if embarrassingly, one of our top centers already. It's not "PR" to acknowledge that. It is an exciting premise and worthy of some praise as a fresh 18 year old.

Tortorella is just getting tunnel vision into thinking "He's one of our top centers already? Then he's making the team."

Unless he is extraordinary, Briere and Jones can't let this go beyond 9 games.

That's what we want from this guy, the ability to keep up. Not develop an offensive game or be a difference maker but just being able to keep up should justify a 13th overall pick

Would bet money they let this go past 9 games and then send him down after he gets scratched by John multiple times
