Marc Gatcomb Appreciation Thread

[leeroggy]

Since I have a sick, twisted sense of humor, and in case he is sent right back down, here's where we can show our love for the underdog!

Fun fact: Gatcomb and Iskhakov were ROOMMATES at UConn . . . Rosner noted Gatcomb's parents were at Isk's NHL debut . . .

Last night's debut:

11 shifts (the first was officially 1 second due to the MM fight!)
7:27 of ice
4 Hits
1 Takeaway
1-0 on faceoffs
1 Shot attempt

I would call that a success for his first game.

Long live the career of Marc Gatcomb!

Phil posted that after his second shift btw, Gatcomb 's line went on to be outshot something like 13-2 on the ice

Is there any truth to the rumor that this kid‘s middle name is Rudy?

Looking good

The kid is making the smart play all the time. Chips deep when called, carries in when it's there.

Why not for the 4th line?
Showing more than Fasching and Engvall

that's fine but set expectations that him becoming a full time 4th liner is all he could be.

Top 6 Kyle Maclean

But yes cheap effective 4th liners is good roster construction IMO. If Gatcomb replaces Martin, Fasching, Maclean next year I’m all for it

Really. You'd think people would learn after the 47th time.

At least it's easy to recognize the people who have the Alan Quine 2nd OT winner against the Panthers as their screensaver.

Is it another nice story, Sure.
Am i happy for him, Sure.
Can he play 4th line minutes, Sure.
Is he what we need to play 4th line minutes.....not even close.
