It’s crazy he was actually effective enough to be a legit 4th liner or extra. All he does now is try to hit guys right after they pass the puck so the hits mean nothing. Seems like a really good guy and these practice scrums are common. Looked like Arbor wasn’t feeling it when Pezzetta put his arm around him after though haha

I don't think he was ever a legit nhler. He happened to be at the right place at the right time to get his nhl career in.

He plays hard and I'm happy for him to get as far as he has, but he was never part of the future, and him being phased out is just a reflection of the team evolving from a doormat that is just looking to fill a roster to a team trying to connect some peices together.

Definitely not a must win game or anything, but any wins we can pick up again Ottawa/Columbus/Detroit/Rangers/Isles helps the cause in a big way. The more we can either separate from the back or claw these guys back at all will go in our favour.

Realistically our race is for WC2 and Ottawa has pulled away in WC1. You're not wrong in that, making the playoffs or not, we're probably not doing anything impactful but the game IS big in regards to this team's hope in making the playoffs.

Given the number of teams contending for the post season every game is a must win game. The coach knows it and the players know it. They aren't pulling phrases like playoff hockey and game 7 out of nowhere. This IS a statement game don't doubt it.

Roy might not be big and tough but he actually has really nice hands in tight around the net. He's good in that area.

Refreshing to see both of these teams playing important games in March. I am rooting for Ottawa to get in, but obviously crossing the fingers for Montreal to destroy them tonight.

He's an Ice Capades! The guy is utterly useless unless he looks good at making figures.

He's a talented player that can't take advantage of those talents as much as he should due to his footspeed. I don't know whether he will be an NHLer long term, it will depend on if he can adapt despite his terrible skating. But to suggest he has no talent at all is silly, he's got great hands and has created a few chances the last few games by hanging around the net front.

He's got talent??? To fill hot dog orders maybe. You do need good hands for that.

The guy would clear waivers any day.

He has talent, just not NHL talent. I think a team MIGHT take him on waivers, but only a bottom feeder

Correct, enough talent for Battle of the Blades :sarcasm:

Well have to see because as soon as he gets eligible, the only reason I'd stress out is if it looks like no one will claim him.

The guy became a millionaire from plagiarizing stuff and not giving credit to sources. He chose to tell all last year, I think he even managed to move to Mexico. He’s created a click bait empire. I’ve caught him several times taking posts from this forum and massaging them into pages for his site, including memes we posted here. There is good money in hockey clickbaiting despite apparent saturation — there are always advertisers willing to sponsor such sites.

He also took on Chara willingly when he was 22. Big Josh is a tough bastard.

I've gained a lot of respect for him this year. He really put in the work in offseason to improve and has been playing hurt for probably 2-3 months. He's found a role on the PK and shutdown stuff and has chipped in his share of goals.

Thus why I don't want to trade him.
Him and Arber are nuclear deterrents tonight -and going forward for that matter.
