Did Frost play today?
He had a nice defensive play, but any line with him centering it seemed to go nowhere.
Three lines with him
w Farabee & TK, 4:07, xGF 22.51%
w Michkov & Tippett 3:03, xGF 0.00%
w Michkov & Foerster, 3:55, xGF 0.00%

Sounds like he's received terrible coaching if he's become this bad with heavy coach intervention.

When coaching makes you worse, and the coach publicly confirms he knows he isnt fair to the player and will not change, is that good development? This is a straightforward yes or no question.

Against some teams you can get a win with one good period and they did.

The Michkov goal was maybe a little taste of what the future might hold. That was quick, fluid and a thing of beauty.

Now is it my imagination or is Risto actually playing pretty good?
Chicago is not exactly a team I would use as a measuring stick for performance. While he is not as terrible as he used to be, still not worth the price in assets it took to get him, nor the contract that he signed.

Torts praised his defensive play and competitiveness.

Let’s focus on Frost while the 6 million dollar man looked like shit -2 no shots and a couple of giveaways that lead to goals.

I would love to know the actual quote in Russian, and how it was filtered in translation, specifically what was meant by "cold blooded." Could have been an even better quote in Russian.

Here is the interview:

My translation from 1:57:
"you must respect every moment in the game you have and you must have a killer instinct and finish it every time".

"Cold blooded" was a literal word by word translation from Russian.

In my opinion the best way to translate it - "killer instinct".
"Stay cool calm and collected" - is also good enough.

P.s.
Also, there is an English phrase "cold blooded murderer" that implies killing someone without emotions. Typically because emotions are in a way of doing it. In other words describing someone who "acts like a professional" killer. So "acting like a pro" is also good enough translation here.

No, Mike. Connor is not great. He’s a 19 year old kid.



Nice to see Michkov get the OT winner.
