Former Bruins Jakub Lauko

[NDiesel]

There is some offense to his game, more than Beecher and Brown at least. Not sure he's ever gotten time away from the 4th line... He has similar tools to role players like Bunting.

Unconventional, but I'd try him on Zacha/Pasta's wing, make that line play with more pace.

I agree with you in that he has some offense. I think with his shot + speed that he could flirt with 20 goals if he had more ice time with better players. Just not sure yet about his ability to get to scoring areas to utilize those tools properly.

Marchand plays with plenty of pace and tons more skill, no thanks.

Happy he's okay, I've taken a stick right beside the eye before and the pain was excruciating, I couldn't imagine taking a skate there instead. Have a quick recovery Lauko!

He's the meme king.

This is a guy who has Morgan Geekie as our most effective forward so far this season, so consider that when responding. I agree with you, Lauko has been fine. Not great, but as a 4th liner he works hard, skates hard, and plays solid defense. I don't know what more you want from a guy in his role with his ice time.

I want fewer penalties but otherwise I think he’s been good.

 

[Hookslide]

I wouldn’t mind seeing how that looks either

I have been saying that for sometime , what do you have to lose two skilled player like Pasta and Zacha , why not put a high energy guy like Lauko with them ............

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

Good sense of humor on Lauko

 

[ODAAT]

kids got a great sense of humor, glad he`ll be ok, could have been drastically worse

Ah, fear…the city is rife with it

So very lucky!

Jaffe and Razor said at 17:38 of their podcast that he also has a fracture.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Is he in the lineup today?

 

[goldnblack]

I have no idea what this player is yet. His ceiling and floor both seem totally unknown to me.

I would be interested if you really did.

Lauko has been struggling, but the last few games have been better. I'd like the progress to continue. he hasn't gotten better by as much as the stars have faltered -- there were lots of triple-digit outputs a week or two back.

I and others have asked how you come to these numbers and you always ignore it. I’ve never had you explain it.

I just read numbers next to abbreviations when you post.

Jakub Lauko’s a tough fourth liner to overlook in Bruins lineup - The Boston Globe

Lauko has been making his presence felt lately, playing like a confident puck hunter.

www.bostonglobe.com

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Fourth liners often can get overlooked over the course of 60 minutes. They play fewer shifts and minutes than the top three lines.
Lately, Jakub Lauko is making it hard to miss him.
The Bruins left winger has been making the best of his fourth-line twirls over the last week-plus, using his quickness and fearlessness to win loose-puck chases and create opportunities.
Lauko is rounding into the form he flashed last year after getting derailed earlier this season. On Oct. 24 in Chicago, Lauko suffered a facial fracture and a nasty gash across the bridge of his nose when he was hit by a skate blade.

He returned to the lineup two weeks later with a full cage and has continued to wear it.

“I’m feeling good,” Lauko said Monday, a small scar near his left eyebrow the only remaining evidence of the horrific incident.

Lauko has been making his presence felt lately, playing like a confident puck hunter.


“Yeah, I started the season slow and just a little stretch before the injury and right after the injury, I kind of didn’t have many looks, I just didn’t feel confident on the puck,” said Lauko, who didn’t factor into the scoring in Monday night’s 5-2 loss to the Blue Jackets but had two assists over his previous three games. “I didn’t have much faith in my ability. So, the last few games I’m trying to be like, ‘OK, let’s forget about it and just try to play.’


“So, I think still there’s a lot of room for improvement, I’m not going to say there isn’t, but I feel a little bit better than I started the season and the first month, let’s say.”

Jim Montgomery has noticed an uptick in Lauko’s play.

“His speed, his ability to win foot races really, and win one-on-one battles,” said the coach, when asked what the second-year pro brings to his attack. “I think his game has really started to trend in the direction that we saw a lot of glimpses of last year and I think you can see he’s getting confident because he’s hanging onto pucks.”

Like everything about the kid except he needs to add a few more pts.But he can skate and hits so no issue with him on bottom lines.
