GDT: Canucks @ Devils - 7:30 PM - MSGSN

[Oneiro]

This is a weird game.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Smith’s usefulness has run its course. He’s dogshit.

 

[Bleedred]

Wood with his patented Corsi shot.

2 bad angle shots tonight

The first one was on a breakaway lol

 

[BostonDevil]

if you lose your helmet dont you have to go right off to the bench? wtf

You can put it back on

 

[MauDevils]

Why was he allowed to put his helmet back on?

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

Brendan Smith should be benched for the season for inexplicably letting that turn into a scoring chance.

I'm just so horrified at the thought of Luke replacing him at the end of the year. How could Luke ever be as good?

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Smith is so incredibly bad.

IIHF this is the rule, in the NHL it's either you can retrieve your helmet if close or leave the ice after the immediate play ends if you're involved.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

you cannot tell me that Luke Hughes can't do at least exactly what Brendan Smith does, which is nothing

I just hope that the coach has the balls to play the kid over the veteran

I've seen them force guys off the ice with a helmet sitting two feet away from them.

Luke is worse defensively. But at least he can skate and contribute offensively

 

[Bleedred]

I don't think Bahl is better than Smith, but I don't know, there was a point earlier in the year where it sure seemed like he was.

So I'm not saying to scratch him, but Luke Hughes is likely better than Smith when he becomes available to use.

 

[DerekDevils30]

The breakaways against need to be cleaned up. Nashville game vibes.

 

[PWiz30]

I've seen them force guys off the ice with a helmet sitting two feet away from them.

I think they just recently tweaked the rule.

NHL referees are incompetent and biased, yes.

 

[Devs3cups]

I'm not so convinced he's worse. His speed alone could negate major burnings like the one that just happened lol.

Regardless, even if he is worse defensively, his offensive talent and transition game are so much better than Smith's that he'll be a net positive out there.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Smith just got absolutely bodied by Kuzmenko, the one "advantage" that he has on Luke isn't that big of an advantage as Luke's skating and how good he is offensively

 

[TheUnseenHand]

I'll say it looks like a great crowd.

Sportsnet panel with a Quinn Hughes for Mercer, Nemec, 1st round pick proposal

I would take Quinn for Haula and Smith

 

[Devilsgrl35]

Smith’s usefulness has run its course. He’s dogshit.

He hasn't even taken his penalty yet.

 

[Bleedred]

I wanna hear Dano get into a rant on who should win the Jack Adams

He hasn't talked about Tocchet too much this period

 

[SJinNewJersey]

Did Dano say the Price is right?

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Sportsnet panel with a Quinn Hughes for Mercer, Nemec, 1st round pick proposal

I'd do that for a superstar winger, as cool as the 3 Hughes bros would be, I'd rather wait for Quinn when he's a UFA.

Why would we do that? Just wait until FA.
