Laval Rocket: Game #1 vs. Abbotsford Canucks (Laval Loses 7-4)

[Treb]

i think Farrell more likely to bust also (if a very late 4th can bust). In fact, since they're both competing for Top 9, feels illogical to say Roy has higher upside but bigger chance of bust. If he has higher upside, presumably also greater chance of being an NHLer to begin with. I'd think it more likely if competing for different roles but they're not really. Curious why you think that?

Higher ceiling, lower floor.

Farrell could settle as a defensive forward, I don't think Roy could.

Refs are definitely consistent in their inconsistencies, so they're bound for the NHL.

Anyone else's feed the commentators just speed up, like they're fast forwarded randomly, but the play isn't?

WTF! It's the other way around.

Maybe not but Roy has such a high hockey IQ, he could probably handle that too. Farrell is so weak, he can get stronger of course but he's got catching up to do

Well, you have to say that goal was coming....

 

[Fatbiggie]

What a bummer

 

[schwang26]

Unbelievable.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Same players for Abbotsford doing the work

Aman, Baines.

Mailloux still tends to drift a lot in the defensive zone. The coaching staff will have to work with him and get him to be more disciplined in his positioning. It's the type of small adjustment that will make a big difference.

 

[Whitesnake]

Well that game does not live up to the standards. Abbotsford has not played 1 game in preseason.

 

[crosbyshow]

Mailloux guys......is awful defensively...awful.

French expression...une vraie poule pas de tête dans sa zone.

He runs everywhere....

He was like that in the juniors...and he still like that.

He has to improve a lot in his zone....a lot to establish himself in the nhl on 5 vs 5..

 

[Fatbiggie]

Come on Trudeau

 

[Whitesnake]

Wow.......what the actual f***...

 

[Skip Bayless]

How the f*** did we get here

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

Our defense is really struggling tonight.

 

[Habs4Life]

Gonna take some time for these young defenders to learn how to play proper d

 

[Team_Spirit]

Poor Dobes 4 goals on 14 shots but nothing he could do about them

 

[Walrus26]

WTF?

 

[Treb]

WTF! It's the other way around.

How?
