Button said that Dumais and Yager were not good. I worry about what JJ Cale said about Vidichek being Dumais's Kunitz and dragging him down

Or that maybe Dumais looks good in the Q but wont look that good bumped up a level. I am skeptical with a small average skater guy from that league.

Can only hope he makes my concerns look foolish but this isnt a good start.

I feel like maybe we shouldn't be making judgements off a single game nobody actually watched lol Dumais will be fine.

A lot of players had a very average game and Dumais is not the one at the bottom of the ranking. Dumais made plays and looked who he is and will get all the offensive plays that we expect from him going forward. I am more concerned about the other offensive players, no one showed up and I will not name them here at this point and they are not from the Q, too early to judge…but Wood had both wristers, it is positive. Those games are tough though, no chemistry…
 
Dumais and likely Vadicek will be cut, Dumais had an horrible game, turned the puck over alot under pressure and couldnt generate much offensively, his small stature and lack of speed was pretty apparent.

Yager was for me one of the biggest fallers last draft, was pretty underwhelming everytime I watched him and was rather vanilla once again today while Firkus wasnt much better. Both will need to have a big game tomorrow.

Liked the Beck, Danielson, Allard line, alot of speed, pace and smarts.

Yager and Firkus, especially Yager, were being counted on as being pretty core offensive peices for this team, if those guys arent going God help us.


Dumais not cutting it we could live with but all 3? That would be a problem.
 
I'd say there's a 80% chance we get Benson back. He's averaging 15 minutes a night and not producing.

They will likely try Celebrini down the middle, he was hands down best player on the ice today. I have Celebrini, Geekie, Beck as the top 3 centers, but Im only speculating, Im not the one making the cuts, only sharing my thoughts.

I bet you Dumais isn't getting cut.
 
Kraken fan here. Are both Firkus and Rehkopf likely to get in? Based on what I've been seeing it seems as if Rehkopf has a better chance cause of his usage.
