Around the NHL — Episode XLXVII

I was reading the game thread. Sounds like they’re loving him so far. Him and kastelic have stood out in the games they played.

I’ll be intrigued to follow Kastelic’s progress this year. Really believe the guy has the physical tools to be a good 4th liner, but was very disappointed in how passive he was last year. Played like a guy on a retirement contract. Will the switch to an organization where you’re actually expected to play hard make a difference?

I think so. The competition for spots is pretty serious over there. He’ll have to keep it up if he wants to stay in the lineup.

Matvei Michkov is going to win the Calder.

The toilet seats will look like fools for drafting Rickenbacher ahead of Michkov

Everyone not named Chicago will, he’s unbelievable.

Was a baffling drop, but his situation with Russia/his Dad was Scary

Habs went the right direction this year with Demidov though, I think he’s going to be phenomenal as well.

Holy crap, Xhekaj deserves a suspension for the way he went after Pare, can't allow repeatedly punching guys in the back of the head

Good thing Xhakass was there as a deterrent or someone could have gotten hurt

The guy has no respect for anyone, complete trash.

Really telling that all major combat sports rule shots to the back of the head as illegal.

But not for this guy, who even when gooning it up chooses the most gutless way possible.
