GREAT job Smith tracking Ovy and not getting sucked in and then also getting the clear.

Did a great job of getting across just enough to discourage the pass with his stick without losing his positioning.

 

[The Old Master]

i think the clock needs a shot of wd40, it's running a little slow.

 

[ColePens]

Wtf.. ESPN like warning the fans it's a bad idea or something. So weird.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

It's pretty often that in reality, Geno got up for these "Sid v Ovi" matchups better than either of the guys on the marquee.

Yeah. I also think people sometimes forget that the reason dude has sustained a lot of his injuries over the years is he's often like... the only physical/ornery player on the whole team at times.

 

[cygnus47]

I like the double forecheck. We’re semi trapping too.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Yeah. I also think people sometimes forget that the reason dude has sustained a lot of his injuries over the years is he's often like... the only physical/ornery player on the whole team at times.

He's definitely got that macho Russian shit down, for sure. For better or worse, Geno is hitting back.

 

[ColePens]

ESPN is dying man. I've never seen a marketing ploy of basically saying "this is going to suck but we want to warn you we are doing it anyway"

NJD lost to Arizona at home.

 

[bambamcam4ever]

The lack of Dumoulin makes Crosby's line so much better

 

[Coastal Kev]

Ok.. win against a questionable opponent. But Dubas better get to working on the bottom 6.

Carter should be cut. Try some youth, you may get lucky.

 

[vodeni]

Sid still has that burst, I could not believe that was him flying

 

[Zirakzigil]

NJD lost to Arizona at home.

The Yotes built an underrated team over the summer

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

NJD lost to Arizona at home.

NJD lost to Logan Cooley at home.

That kid's debut was unreal.

 

[ColePens]

NJD lost to Arizona at home.

Arizona looked good. I watched the first 20 mins. It was like a different team.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

NJD lost to Arizona at home.

NJD played yesterday.

What, are you talking about the "Redzone" broadcast? I think it's kinda cool. You can always just watch the regular broadcast...

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Bjugstad with the winner

 

[SEALBound]

Ok.. win against a questionable opponent. But Dubas better get to working on the bottom 6.

Carter should be cut. Try some youth, you may get lucky.

They tried it in the pre-season...then they claimed Harkins. We don't have a lot. I think the best we can likely do is try to trade Ty Smith for a 3RW equivalent and hope we catch lightning in a bottle.

 

[Empoleon8771]

If I was confident in Rakell playing LW with a lefty center full-time, I'd be advocating for Guentzel-Crosby-Smith and Rakell-Malkin-Rust as the top-6.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

NJD lost to Arizona at home.

Cooley is gonna be a beast.

 

[ColePens]

What, are you talking about the "Redzone" broadcast? I think it's kinda cool. You can always just watch the regular broadcast...

I muted whatever the advert was and then they come back and make like 5 excuses for it. I've never heard marketing like that.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I see the concern about Graves but he's an upgrade to Dumo for sure.

He's not sliding aimlessly on the ice and can make a pass or two.

Though I have seen some stupid plays/roving.

And I'm not a size queen but...

 

[Zirakzigil]

Is*

I thin in 25 games people are going to love Graves. I think he is just nervous and really wrestling with decision making.

In about 25 games people will be diggin.
