Fil said he spent the summer working on his legs and wrist shot. Paying dividends now. I've no doubt there's a lot more development still to come as he works out the wrinkles in his game.

But last night happened so we don't need to take away those 2 goals and he's one of the reasons we are headed to a Game 7.

I always had high hopes for Chytil. He always showed signs of talent. He has obviously taken his game to another level this postseason. The strength he is showing, the quickness in hunting the puck, bounces finally going his way, all lead to the success he has had this postseason. He is a diamond in the rough no more.
The way he reversed hit Brendan Smith to give himself room to get off that backhand, was simply beautiful.
One of the reasons I always liked him, is that he has that ability to create all on his own. Either with an end to end rush, like MacKinnon did the other night or bounce off defenders to create space for himself. He has the speed and strength to pull these things off.
Plus you put guys like Laffy and Kakko next to him who have the ability to set him up, and good things are bound to happen.
If we are to take Game 7 in Raleigh, this line will be needed to get us on the scoreboard. Scoring has been difficult there. And as strange as it might seem, these kids look hungry to produce and make a difference.

I really don’t get the arguments of , if you took this game away, or if Shesty wasn’t there. Its nonsense, it happened and the goalie is part of the team.

a skill player showing his skill. very dangerous with the puck deep in the zone. lethal shot and good instincts in those scenarios. sometimes he looks flustered and puzzled when he's in other areas of the ice, but when he has the puck down low, he looks like he knows exactly what to do.
Remember when all season people lumped him Gauthier together like they're same quality player?

Don’t worry about this right now. Enjoy the fact he’s elevated his game in the playoffs and scored some huge goals in big spots.
Did you know Matthews had 0 goals if we took away every game he scored in? Pathetic that he’s the front runner for the Hart in this clown league

Chytil is heads above Necas. That dude handles the puck like a hand grenade.

Feeling it
I see a boy turning into a man before our eyes.
Kid is getting to be a little clutch too. The 5th goal he scored to shut up the Canes fans and the reaction from him and Laffy was priceless.
He is getting addicted to that feeling and his confidence is brimming.
He’s 22. Laf is 20.

Yea, also because KK gets shit on all the time here, he made two really key plays to set up that goal. First the pass out of the defensive end and then forcing the turnover at the offensive blue line. Thought he was really good last night.

besides Shesterkin's toe save on Teravainen right after we went up 2-0 Chytil's goal was the most important play of the night. just a big punch right to the stomach right after the Canes have something even resembling momentum for the first time.
There have been young guys who have played better than him on this team but I don't think anyone has raised their stock as much as Chytil.

Can someone explain to me why I shouldn’t be optimistic that Chytil is looking an awful lot like a young Mika Zibanejad? These two have a very similar physical build. Both rangy, plus skaters. Fil doesn’t have Zib’s shot, but I’m not sure that Zib had this shot when he was 22yo either.
The only things that keep me from getting overly excited about Fil are is injury history and his contract. I’m not sure if they’re going to be able to afford him after next season.

This kid line is incredible! So exciting to see the energy and talent. Kakko is finding his form, Chytil has confidence and Laffy has been the best of the three. We can win!
16 game player if ever there was one.
The best thing about the Chytl goals is the fact that everyone was involved in making it happen.
