Laval Rocket: GDT: Game FOUR- Rochester at Laval 7PM EST

[26Mats]

Man can Engstrom ever skate. It will be interesting to see him fine tune his game in the minors over the next year or two and get used to the North American game.

Will be intersting to see: what's his defensive ceiling? What's his offensive ceiling?

 

[Goldenhands]

Engstrom flying out there, such a great effortless skater.

 

[Schooner Goon]

Well it was dumb because he should have started game 1.

I don't think there's anything dumb about starting the goalie who has barely lost in 2025. Also Primeau's 2 and 0 this series.

 

[Paradoxe]

Unfrickinbelievable. Never should’ve put Fowler in after the long time off.

PV is out of his mind, again ... Way to go to kill both goalie mojo.

 

[Runner77]

After 2, Rochester continues to lead 4-1.

Gustav Forsling is his ceiling. Elite skaters like this are rare. GM's will want him included in a package for that elusive 2nd line center.

 

[Rapala]

Anyone wondering about a replacement for Matheson can stop wondering.

This game was over at 2-0.

Yep, one more year in the minors and Engstrom replaces Matheson.

 

[Whitesnake]

Maybe he has been directed by management to play Fowler. It wasn't his idea I am convinced. Seasoned coaches ride the #1.

I hope we will know that. If so, it's just as stupid if not more. Fowler is not in the NHL next year. Might not be the year after. The experience he needs will be what he had this year in the regular season, a little in THESE playoffs...but most importantly the entire next year.....No idea how what's being played right now is crucial.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Damn, Fowler is a bust

Start the rebuild over?

 

[Schooner Goon]

Gustav Forsling is his ceiling. Elite skaters like this are rare. GM's will want him included in a package for that elusive 2nd line center.

I've been thinking the same thing. He'd be a shrewd addition to a package by another GM. An underrated prospect. Most fans of that team acquiring him won't even know who he is.

 

[Rapala]

This game was over at 2-0.

Yeah it's hard to put 3 by a sharp Devon Levi when we are on top of our game which we aren't.

 

[Rapala]

Vincent needs to cut his bench in the third to have a chance.

Forsling is very good defensively from what I've seen.

Can Engstrom become that good? We'll see.

An interesting fact about the Panthers Dcore. While they have 3 dmen that are 6'4 and above, (Seth Jones, Ekblad, and Mikkola), they also have 3 dmen 6'1 and below (Forsling, Schmidt, and Kulikov).

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Told you Laval won't get a PP

Still a puzzle how things shake out. Clearly some LD's need to be traded for a top 4 RD, a top 6 C, etc...

On the left, we already have Hutson, Guhle, and Xhekaj, and Struble. Who does Engstrom beat out?

On the right side?

 

[Rapala]

Flojack seems to be off his oats.

 

[Runner77]

This game was over at 2-0.

Depends. For me, it's only over after this guy scores.

Then what does it tell us about the management?

 

[Rapala]

On the right side?

Same role keep in mind Engstrom has played both sides this season as well as in Sweden.
