didn't even try on the 6 vs 5, PP off to a horrendous start so of course we'll score on it lol

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

If you waited another 18 minutes you could have killed the period.

Je-sus talk about holding on too long

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Come on boys, you have to get at least one powerplay right.

 

[HomaridII]

Reinbacher, for me, is Jay Bouwmeester. Solid. Great skater. I just don't see the offensive instincts that tells me he could be more. But every team need a Bouwmeester...that's for sure. Let's hope I'm wrong for the offense.

Bouwmeester was a third overall pick.

He had 10 seasons where he averaged more than 25 mins per game. 14 seasons of 22 plus minutes per game and only once in his entire career played less than 20 ( rookie season 19:42).

He is a member of the triple gold club (Stanley cup, World Cup and Olympic gold). He played in the world juniors at 16 and won three world juniors. He once played 737 consecutive games.

I would be EXTREMELY happy with that. Thank you .

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Right off the post. A great play by Kidney, though.

 

[c3z4r]

didn't realize Burrows moonlights as the Rocket PP coach

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Heineman is at least playing a strong game tonight.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Oh come on! Another f***ing PK.

Apparently not. No idea why they blew whistle then.

 

[Tyson]

Heineman is at least playing a strong game tonight.

He competes and is a decent PKer

 

[EveryDay]

I don't like the Rocket pp at all.....

 

[Tyson]

I don't like the Rocket pp at all.....

Not much to like. They have skill, just not getting it done.

That would be a great outcome. He would have played over 1,300 games with no lockout. He was on some porous Panthers and Flames teams.

 

[Tyson]

They have to bury those

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Oh Perreault, you HAVE to get that, dude! Wide open f***ing net.

 

[teamfirst]

Y manque une bougie d'allumage a la Simoneau

 

[HomaridII]

Oh Perreault, you HAVE to get that, dude! Wide open f***ing net.

Mysak was so much better than perreault. Don’t get that trade at all, specially he was having a really strong second half of the season.

 

[le_sean]

Belleville better get something for the after whistle crosscheck to the face all the officials were looking at.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Ok. Now we're getting another PK. *sigh*

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Bad timing for a penalty. We need another big PK effort.

 

[c3z4r]

glad that crosscheck straight to the jaw goes unpunished

 

[EveryDay]

Mailloux is not having a good game at all...

You can't feel the lost right now unfortunately

 

[Rapala]

LOL Barron clear the zone like that all the time and you'll pick up some fans.

 

[schwang26]

I can’t see how they’ll pull this off.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Mysak was so much better than perreault. Don’t get that trade at all, specially he was having a really strong second half of the season.

Yeah, Perreault needed to show way more determination on that play. He just needed to touch the puck & it would have deflected into the net.

Here's a crazy stat... In JBo's draft year, only 6 players picked in the first round that year played more NHL games than the very last player picked that year (Jonathan Ericsson, 9th round, 291st OA)

Zero relevance to your comparison aside from JBos 2002 draft class...

I think that's probably a fair low estimate of what RBs ceiling looks like... I see more assertiveness in the glimpses of RB I've seen, JBo was about as passive as a player gets. His physical tools and great hockey IQ allowed him to be a very good NHLer, but also speaks to a lot of impact potential left on the ground because of his lack of intensity. Hopefully RB carries more edge with him as he settles into his frame & builds man-strenght
