3. Sorokin
2. Neighbors
1. Hofer

That does sound correct.

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

Nice win! Now let's spice it up a little bit next game. Maybe score 2!

 

[Robb_K]

Neighbours scores the winner after Hofer makes a brilliant bank-pass off the wall to Broberg, who feeds him!!!

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Neighbours can’t score from more than like 5ft out

They don’t ask how, just how many!

now you gotta talk ... * * * * off

Im good with it. We need a guy that gets the greasy goals.

 

[MissouriMook]

So that was a pretty good use of a 2nd round pick.

He is now known as The Garbage Man!

Tom Calhoun should’ve mentioned Hofer’s assist. Come on! That’s a huge play.

 

[Klank Loves You]

Excited to see the kids play well.

 

[Dr Robot]

And obviously none of this would have happened if Kyrou had shot the puck.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Good win

i like it ... he can carry the pail

 

[ChicagoBlues]

JAKE FINALLY WOKE UP!
BROBERG WITH POINTS IN EVERY GAME!!!


All together now:
Almost Heaven ....

Country roads
Take me home.....

Really great to see Jake get one and a superb game by Hofer.

Not a fan of this top line. Still think we should run Thomas and Kyrou separately, but if we put them together Saad is not the right third wheel. Maybe give Bolduc a chance with Thomas.

Suter played well with Parayko. Broberg is a certified stud.

Minor point, but I think Kapanen deserves to be on the 4th line. He's got size and speed and is playing with a good motor, also a threat to score a random goal here and there. Toropchenko has played poorly this year IMO, he can sit.

 

[Robb_K]

Nice to have TWO goaltenders who can puckhandle like a forward, eh??? Now, if we could just get a couple more forwards with that skill....

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

suter and colt no glaring issues

 

[PocketNines]

The reason I am not worried about Neighbours as much despite the slow start is his game is built to bend toward success. Let him get into his identity and then he will solidify. Hopefully that GWG gets him going

They 100% need to be broken up, they don't have great chemistry anyways.

Anyone who plays with Kyrou needs to be someone who plays with size and preferably someone with defensive first mentality because Kyrou is a speedster floater who will coast any chance he can get. I personally don't think Kyrou is capable of playing #1 line minutes against other teams top lines and defenders. He is better suited on the second line. This team really needs another strong 30+ goal scorer to emerge to fit that #1 line with Thomas.

Broberg has exceeded my expectations.

Toropchenko has not looked good in this first handful of games.

Buch to Hofer to Broberg to Neighbours

Thing of beauty.

- Broberg looks even better than advertised. Still wince when I see #6 handling the puck in our zone, thanks to Marco. Looks great in all 3 zones, and that pass at the end was a beaut.

- Very well rounded game for Kyrou. Not sure what some of you guys are wanting.

- Bolduc looked a lot more comfortable. I think keeping him up is the right move. Him going down and doing well in the AHL would be fine, but this is definitely better for his development as long as the numbers game allows.

- Schenn is Jekyll and Hyde. There are times when he seems like the smartest player on the ice, like that turnover and near goal. Then there are times like in OT when he gets walked easily. I'm sure we'll see more of this as his contract goes on; lots of highs and lows even within the same period or shift.

- Hofer looked great. Our defense allowed better chances than theirs did IMO. They clogged the middle really well. Hofer made up for a lot of mistakes.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

suter and colt no glaring issues

They were paired up tonight?

Good in the short-term.

Just like they drew it up on the bench.
