Yeah, certainly some truth in what I said. A game report i read basically said the same thing as he handles their top defensive minutes.

Like if Parayko gets ejected on his first shift, it's going to be a long night for all of us.
That’s been true since last year. The announcer made a similar comment in last nights game. It’s like Burns is on the ice all the time. The other replied if he was on our team I would want him on the ice all the time.

Look I know it's two plays, but I look at this kid and see a star. If he can stay healthy, I think we look back on Jiricek as one of our best recent draft picks.


Well he scored both goals up by 5 goals. I wouldn’t get too carried away. He was outshined by his partner in the games I watched. Owen Protz is a pretty impressive prospect for Montreal. Do I see a top 4? Yes, but I would like to see him more engaged.

He's got a lot to work on, no doubt. I think he's got that undefinable "it" factor though. I can't throw any numbers around to support that, it's just what I see in how he plays. He's got swagger.

Yeah, when you watch him you can tell why he had the hype and potential leading into the 24 draft. Big thing for him is staying healthy and keeping development on track, and we'll see what kind of player he can be.

He missed a lot of development time. His D partner who has played 66 games last year and 30 this year should look better than a guy who missed most of last year and only played 6 games this year.

It's not about who looks better now, but how AJ looks in 3 or 4 to 10 years.
