I’ll post some when I’m homePics or we’re all coming over with snacks that leave crumbs.
mustve read my report from last gameCrunched a guy for a boarding. Wasn't through the numbers though. The guys left shoulder was next to the boards and Silayev hit him through like the backside of the guys right shoulder and drove him face first into the boards.
So he cheapshotted someone? Can he play with NJ starting tonight?Crunched a guy for a boarding. Wasn't through the numbers though. The guys left shoulder was next to the boards and Silayev hit him through like the backside of the guys right shoulder and drove him face first into the boards.

Well he can stay in the KHL for now in that case.Thing is it wasn’t a cheapshot. He seems like a bit of a gentle giant. He’s not like Dougie or anything as he will will throw the body around often but he doesn’t have a mean streak in him
this was good. i could pick apart a couple minor plays, but i saw things i liked all over the ice
we're still not at the execution/results stage yet, but this is the type of game you look at and start to think his projection could be greater than just defensive specialist
- took my hard to play against critique to heart, boarded the crap out of a guy in the 1st (and i dont think he really went that hard on him either lol)
- nice off zone play on the ensuing shift. took the puck down the right boards and cut to the middle for a decent shot attempt. confident possession. couple other pinches today (and an extended carry off an entry) that didnt really go anywhere but showed good willingness
- specifically liked his intent to follow up on a rebound opportunity late 1st. saw his teammate intercept the puck, recognized he had space in front of him, and booked it to the net. couldnt get a stick on the puck but he was right outside the crease for a chance. great idea/awareness here
- on the NKH goal he effectively ended up double covering a guy, but i dont think its on him. Fs were really light on the backcheck and let a streaking attacker shoot from the slot, and from silayev's pov i dont think he trusted that his partner was gonna cut off the backdoor opportunity in time
- defensive stick is always good but he was straight money with it today, clean contact on first poke attempts over and over
- also seemed extra sturdy/proactively physical. at least 5 separate instances of an attacker trying to challenge him and winding up on the ice. really steady/more contact focused outside the crease, too
How many hits a game does he register?Thing is it wasn’t a cheapshot. He seems like a bit of a gentle giant. He’s not like Dougie or anything as he will will throw the body around often but he doesn’t have a mean streak in him

What are the chances he would wrap his stick around Cernak's throat after a big hit on Bratt? If the answer is zero he can marinate some more where he is. If the answer is he'd find Cernak on the walk to the team bus and shiv him then get him on a plane.Leads Torpedo in hits and is at 1.5 a game
could only loosely follow along today but this checks out. think hes showing signs of more extended carries/ideas beyond just shooting (last game had a crazy one), but still a work in progressIf I were to ignore the GAs I thought it was a solid game. His most involved game offensively. He might have hit double digits in shot attempts. Most of them weren't great though and I think his game from the point is still too primitive with him generally defaulting to throwing the puck on net immediately after he gets it. Was set up for a nice chance in the high slot as the trailer. Couldn't tell if he missed the net or the goalie got a piece with the shaft of his stick.
