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

[Team_Spirit]

Penalizing hitting on icing races would have been better than no touch icing but probably too complex to call

 

[Don D]

Kapanen still hasn't shown me anything special.

Still another prospect with flaws! Time will tell.

 

[Mrb1p]

Id say average at everything, maybe. Doesn't have 1 skill that stands out.

Kind of reminds me of Farrell, he'll need a lot effort and exceptional IQ to make it long term.

I hope he proves me wrong.

Farrel will never make it. Too small, soft, slow, weak, he has no shot and hes old.

Kapanen can play all over a lineup.

 

[Tyson]

Still another prospect with flaws! Time will tell.

%. He is a prospect that has work to do. He is probably surprised at how intense AHL Playoff hockey is.

 

[overlords]

'belle feinte de kapanen' hmmmmmm

I like RB’s game. Aside from one clusterf***, he’s been very stable.

I'm not saying YOU do this, at all, this is just for my example

But it's just so interesting we as fans focus so much on everyone playing 100% perfect every second of every game I find lol

But then you watch the playoffs and I'll see Pietrangelo fumble a puck or ice it randomly
I'll see Ekblad get caught by a faster player
I'll see Miro Heiskanen have a turn over

It's just interesting we focus so hard like that like Reinbacher will make 1 mistake and it's
AHA! NON-NHL MATERIAL I TOLD YOU ALL BLAH BLAHHHH

Just too bad really lol
He's gonna be a Player for us whether haters like it or not.

Why isn’t every rink required to have multiple cameras like in Laval? If you’re part of a paid service, it should be the norm.

 

[Andrei79]

I wouldn't write him off just yet

I'm rooting for him. All I've heard about him from media and non media people is that he's a good guy who works very hard. The type to spend his Friday nights honing his craft. Sometimes though, you can't outwork your physical limit. What people don't realize though is even if you don't have an NHL career, you can easily become a millionaire playing in Europe (10-20k euros net a month, no taxes, no expenses, car/house provided).

 

[KevSkillz4]

Big thumbs up to Nick Bobrov with Florian Xhekaj!!

Xhekaj will be a fan favorite in NHL level!!

 

[Team_Spirit]

Kapanen lmao

Flo robbed

He's excellent.

There's 2 obvious aspect of his game that he has to work on

- Crossing behind his net with puck control. Twice tonight he bubbled the puck trying to cross too close to the net under pressure, once of these time he turned it over. Teams will notice and expose him. If we see it, MTL's management sees it too and they will work on that this summer for sure so he's more smooth when lowering his shoulder for a sharp turn with the puck.

- First steps speed needs work. He needs to be quicker. It's not bad, but it's one of his more obvious flaw.

 

[HabsAddict]

Great defensive plays from the forwards

 

[Andrei79]

Outside of when he lost an edge in the first, Reinbacher is looking real good.

 

[domiwroze]

How tf Flo didn't score on that wow, bust

 

[Redux91]

Are you serious FloJack??
TRADE HIM

 

[overlords]

the man with no knees just broke someone's ankles in the corner

Hockey is a game of mistakes, you just cant make one every f***iny shift, mike.

 

[EveryDay]

Tremendous game by Reinbacher.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Lots of minutes and complicated situations to manage tonight for Reinbacher. This is exactly what he needs as a rookie, those playoff games are worth double development wise.

Same size as Dustin Wolf...you never know

 

[TheBuriedHab]

Flojak is our #1 prospect im convinced.

 

[Mrb1p]

Big thumbs up to Nick Bobrov with Florian Xhekaj!!

Xhekaj will be a fan favorite in NHL level!!

Dont think Bobrov has much to do with the pick, no? It was probably Lapointe who pushed hard for Arber apparently.

 

[Skip Bayless]

I said this since his first training camp, but Xhekaj's offensive awareness reminds me of Roy's. He's got legit skill.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Screw BPA we need 2 wingers for Flo Jack

Just made a payer fall on his ass with a play behind the net. He’ll get better at it.
