Around the League - 2023/24

[John Mandalorian]

The classic 3-0 to 2-2 swing off a coaches challenge.

It’s a story as old as Gilgamesh.

The Habs are in complete disarray after that goal was called back.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Bedard has great vision. I haven't watched much of his junior highlights, but he doesn't look like a 18 year old out there at all.

 

[sethro109]

I really don't like how big those Energizer Bunny ads are.

 

[Avs_19]

That clown Bertuzzi already costs his team.

 

[Balthazar]

Caufield is gonna score a lot of goals

 

[sethro109]

#LostTheTrade!!!!

 

[Perratrooper]

Newy!!

 

[Cypher]

Newhook 1/7 of the way of his career high in goals after 45 mins.

 

[avsfan9]

Why couldn’t he do that with us!

 

[redacted]

Newhook looks good on the wing. He still has sets and spots he likes, but he’s more fluid on the ice than he was with the Avs. Not constantly stopping at the top of the faceoff circle.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Bedard has great vision. I haven't watched much of his junior highlights, but he doesn't look like a 18 year old out there at all.

He doesnt look like an 18 yr old player at all. He looks the same way Mackinnon looked in his first few games as if hes been in the league for years already.

 

[Avs_19]

Stutzle 100 point season is coming.

edit: Wow. He actually had 90 points last season so I guess that's not too bold. Maybe even expected as the next step.

 

[Alienblood]

Yeah for real. I wasn't following the the NHL media as closely when McDavid came in but feels like Bedard is getting more hype and attention than he did.

I wouldn't mind if he had a rough start to his career if only for the hype to calm down a bit.

it is sickening

 

[Foppa2118]

Hard to tell for sure in the different uniform, but Newhook looks a little bigger this year.

Stutzle 100 point season is coming.

Let’s just be happy LA didn’t select him.

 

[Avs_19]

Ylonen with a sick goal. Love that backhander after Samsonov bites.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Traylor Haul already hurt

 

[Alienblood]

TOR is a contender?

No

 

[Avs_19]

Let’s just be happy LA didn’t select him.

Oh for sure but I'm not out on Byfield just yet. I thought he showed a little something last season.

 

[Alienblood]

Why couldn’t he do that with us!

Bednar didn't give him enough ice and pit confidence in him.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Oof, that's a dirty hit. No penalty called, but then call the Dickenson for instigating a fight. f***ing terrible.

Edit, ok, they evidently did call the boarding, but still. 5 on 5 after all that

 

[redacted]

I see goaltending is still optional in the NHL. We’re going to have multiple 150 point guys at this rate.

Oh for sure but I'm not out on Byfield just yet. I thought he showed a little something last season.

He’ll probably round out into a good player still… Stutzle is MacK level.

 

[Balthazar]

Leafs pullling the goalie with 4:45 left and score

 

[Avs_19]

Hawks getting Bedard isn't ideal but I honestly don't mind the hype. It's deserved hype and he's awesome to watch.

McDavid's hype was also well deserved and he lived up to it.

Even MacKinnon had people going insane, even more so after his rookie playoff performance.
