We already have one guy that can skate with McDavid. Two would be unfair.Never say never
Brad Jones disagrees.It was inevitable, he didn't play badly, he just didn't do enough to justify keeping him up.
Great experience for the kid, practiced and played in the NHL, got to learn what he needs to improve in his game to play at the next level.
Should start next season in the NHL.
Needs to work on his offensive skill package, but when you can skate with McDavid, you know you got the goods to make it at the next level.
Biggest improvement needed is probably his shot, and to think the game faster, the windows in the CHL are going to look huge to him.
Wow a whopping 7 minutes he hung in there you say. Get hos Flyers hall of fame banner ready.I think it's nine games played, so there was no rush.
And yes, he did skate with McDavid, 7 minutes, and wasn't overwhelmed.
That's a huge confidence builder. Knowing you can hang in there with the best.
Wasn't a comparison, just a generalized statement that blazing speed means nothing if there's not much else to your gameThat's a weird comparison.
Luchanko is a good passer, he just needs to work on his shot.
Couts was awesome. Best game from him since early last year. Hope his body holds up. Might have been the best game i've ever seen from Risto too.
