He really was. It sucked that his career wasn't very long, but that human cannonball style is always very limited.
RIP Tomas. 45 is way too young.
I understand what you mean but Barkov, Matt Kachook, and Eichel are included in the elite level that I was speaking about. They are guys that played top 6 in the 4 nations tourney.
I'm fine with guys sticking up for teammates when the hit is dirty or borderline, but Thompson was admiring his pass. Looked clean all the way.
Hey, Bolts fan coming in peace. Do any of you happen to know what happened to the Game Misconduct podcast? Hasn't posted since 3/3. I know they cover the whole league but it's a pretty Rangers heavy pod and I know that LaGreca works for MSG so I thought I'd ask here. Thanks.
I really thought after that loss last week that the Jackets would make it and the Rangers were cooked. Suddenly the Rangers control their own destiny.
nobody is ever truly cooked in this horrible east
I don't think it turns out quite this bad if Subban isn't a piece of shit. Blais was actually looking pretty damn good until PK tried to end his career.
Not that it's likely at all that he ends up being as good as Buch, but there was certainly a world where he became a contributing middle six player for us during a couple playoff runs.
Whether he's a fascist or not, you can hardly blame people booing the anthem of a country whose leader threatens to annex them against their will.
I think Blais's impact would have been closer to Rempe than Buch. Blais maxed out at 9 goals and 11 assists, put up .27 PPG across his career, averaged ~11m of ice time across his career, and never played more than 53 games in a season including playoffs. Those wrecking ball guys have some value, but give me another Buch 10 times out of 10.
Yeah, I take Buch every time too. Even not being a wrecking ball, he definitely had some bite to his game.
It just felt like Blais had lost a step when he finally returned from that slew foot (almost an entire calendar year later?). A big part of his value was that he was a big, rough, energy guy, with reasonable hands. He wasn't really that once he got back; he was just a Gauthier level bottom 6er.
If you think the US is "annexing Canada against their will" I have a bridge in downtown Brooklyn to sell you
