Greer bullies Podkolzin whenever they play

Greer bullies Podkolzin whenever they play

Greer boarded him first ( 2 minute minor ) which led to the fight.

Boqvist looks like a middle 6'er with the cats this year.

 

[TD Charlie]

This is actually a really scrappy brawl!

Greer boarded him first ( 2 minute minor ) which led to the fight.

Yup completely drilled him from behind- not directly into the boards or anything but Podkolzin definitely didn’t feel it coming

He's got more points than anyone on our blueline this season.

He's got more points than anyone on our blueline this season.

And he got his first goal of the season and as a Penguin tonight.

Needed a change of scenery Sweeney didn't do him any favors running down that contract.

Most of these talented yet middle lineup guys do.

Thank you so much for posting this.

Everyone who cares about hockey, and proper leadership, should read it.

I do not know the details, but Zendo Chara struggled in the beginning as captain of the Boston Bruins.

I would like to know more about that.

In the event, I am dealing with some of the same issues at work. It isn't easy.

But good leadership is something you work on.

Thanks again for posting,

M.
