Hayes is a monster today.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Why on earth is Strome getting PP time?

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Can't recall Kevin Hayes looking so quick and skating so well in an NHL game.

 

[NYR]

2 mins for hitting a small guy

He did't have the puck

 

[mike14]

Better looking PP than yesterday

 

[Algernop Kreider]

I'm struggling to understand why Quinn took the PP point men off their off wings.

 

[aufheben]

Whoa our goalie made an outlet pass

 

[Nickmo82]

Zibanejad has a great shot. Why oh why is he on his off side on the powerplay?

 

[effen]

Honestly can’t think of a worse place to put Chytil than the left point.

“bUt tHeYre pr0fesSi0nal coAchEs”

There's nitpicking, and there's nitpicking.

Bravo.

Good question

 

[NYR]

I can certainly understand the reasoning for putting Zib at the point on the PP because of his shot but he's much more effective on the LS half boards.
Quinn is taking goals away by doing this..

 

[CasusBelli]

Reminds me more of Eminger

Ok that’s not good

 

[effen]

Good question

They wouldn't stop forcing the crossice pass to him (Zbad) and everyone stood still waiting for it. For several games.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

There's nitpicking, and there's nitpicking.

Bravo.

The place you play on the power play isn’t relevant these days I guess.

 

[Rempe73]

Based on what I read. Not watching the game.

So you are serious? Ok, I thought Claesson was already pretty overrated by this fan base. Now I know for sure. I remember everyone was gushing over Fast last season just like they are now over Claesson. Everyone was overrating him, and I got ridiculed for bringing that up.

Anyways, I don’t think Claesson is bad by any means, but the guy scores one goal and we compare him to Stralman? I think we need to slow down.

 

[Gordon Bombay]

The Tom Wilson hobnobbing by Sam and Joe has me ready to vomit. I didn't realize Wayne Gretzky was making a comeback.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

If we just sign Hayes to repetitive 1 year deals, he'll always play like it's a contract year.

Perpetual contract year.

Technically they play an umbrella (single high pointman) but like any good PP its fluid, so, ????

 

[Rempe73]

Can't recall Kevin Hayes looking so quick and skating so well in an NHL game.

Probably lost his stash

 

[effen]

How can both Zbad AND Chytil be on the left point on the PP

:thinking:

 

[Kovalev27]

Zibanejad is so goddamn good defensively.

He’s been a horse. Just needs to actual linemates and he’d be a ppg guy too.

 

[NYR]

:thinking:

Chytil belongs around the net

 

[effen]

He’s been a horse. Just needs to actual linemates and he’d be a ppg guy too.

Certainly looks like they're grooming HIM to be the matchup center once Hayes is gone. Food for thought.

 

[effen]

Chytil belongs around the net

No. He doesn't have the strength to be a front-net guy for extended shifts.

 

[Kovalev27]

I'm struggling to understand why Quinn took the PP point men off their off wings.

Makes zero sense
