He played well.

For a pure rookie if he didn't stand out doing dumb things he played well. In this case he didn't do anything boneheaded and I think he smacked a post in the 1st period. Good game rook.

He definitely looked better than Sheary from last year. He wasn't spectacular but didnt make nay bad plays. He also got a goal with that snipe. He isn't afraid to fight or use his body big need for team. I have a feeling we will seeing Sheary, Atkinson, and Chaffee out of the line up for him this year. Maybe he can be our next Hagel, but it is too early to tell.

I think he gets sent down when we are fully healthy. Big potential but he's not out performing Chaffee or Atkinson....yet. Let him go down and dominate the AHL for a bit.

Either that, or JBB needs to suck it up and waive Sheary. What I don't wanna see is Geekie healthy scratched.

I think he's gonna spend most of the year with the Crunch.

Finally had his chance to prove something more in a scoring line with better players. Too hard show what you has playing in 3rd or 4th lines and the coach must be ready for that, happen before and we lost some key players for nothing...

Coop on moving Geekie to the wing with Hagel and Cirelli in the top 6:

"First of all he's shown us some signs (he could do it), especially in training camp. We had him playing in the middle, which he is natural, but I think especially coming into this league it's ok to jump over to wing. It can be a little bit of an easier assignment than the demands of having to play center, and he's playing with two pretty good players. He's a really good player himself. He's just not an experienced player. It was just one game, but he'll be with those guys again tonight, but with each game too he's getting more confident. But maybe helping him take a little less responsibility away from him putting him on the wing is helping him."
