GDT: Most Extreme Hockey Challenge - 7:00 PM - MSGSN

[Guttersniped]

I got a good feeling folks!

 

[Blackjack]

Good

I was slightly wondering if they were gonna start the other guy just because it's the dad's trip and they wanna give him a game while his dad is in town lol.

They couldn’t let MacKenzie Blackwood bring his dad on the trip because there was not room for the entire Washington Capitals roster on the plane.

Boom!

 

[FinnishDevil]

These new lines are cool and all until the 2nd period when Ruff goes back to the old lines.

 

[Jack Be Quick]

I thought Tyce earned another look. Granted I was at the game so didn't have the benefit of replay to gage his overall play, but he looked like he was playing intense hockey from where I was sitting.

I'd rather see Boqvist in the press box.

Take a deep breath Bleed...

He's fine. He got the bad game out of the way.

Boom!

Or the entire roster of probably the other 30 teams.

Boq had a nice game last one though. He started slow last season when he got his looks and finished season looking potent.

I saw that last game.. The potent version.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Let's prevent this from happening

Boq had a nice game last one though. He started slow last season when he got his looks and finished season looking potent.

Unfortunately, not as slow as this season.

He had 4 points through 16 games last year and they were all assists.

He scored his last 19 points of the season over the last 40 games.

This year he only has 4 points in 29 games and all 4 of them came in the first 15 games. He's currently on a 14 game pointless drought.

This is more like his start in 19-20 than anything, only he has 1 assist and had 0 assists and 4 goals in 35 games that year.

I know he doesn't play many minutes, but he doesn't score enough to cut it in the NHL long term. 38 points in 148 games in the league is really just not enough for a forward, unless they play some kind of specific role like McLeod does. And while I'm not sure he's worse than McLeod, they don't see him as a ''Face off specialist'' or ''Defensive checking center'' like McLeod, thus he becomes much more expendable because of it.

I could honestly see him going overseas after this year. If we bring him back again for another year, I don't think he'll get anywhere near as much NHL time next year.

I'm pretty sure someone would have picked him up off of waivers if he went through this year, but not so much next year, with what he's followed up with this year. Especially if he's waived during camp.

And while I'm on the topic of McLeod, I don't see him as a long term player in the league, though he'll almost definitely stick around the league longer than Boqvist, because of that ''Role player'' factor that I mentioned.

Me too man, we'll walk away with 2 points tonight.

 

[MasterofGrond]

Win tonight. I personally guarantee it.

 

[Emperoreddy]

What I want to see

 

[Emperoreddy]

If Vtek plays well and they drive the net more I feel like we should be able to win this

Hmmm, at the game and couldn’t tell that Boq was one of our best skaters? Cmon now.

 

[Capt Nico Poo]

I liked Tyce, thought the 4th line was noticeable with him.

Thought Boq had some good opportunites that just died to his stick.

Boqvist is probably coming off one of his best games. I'd like to see Tyce as well and would sit Holtz.

 

[Better Call Sal]

It is kind of funny that Sharangovich-Boqvist-Mercer probably had their best game as a line and narrowly missed two goals in the last game and they get split. But hey, the finishing hasn't been here for a while, so something has to give.

I also agree that Boqvist probably had his best overall game in a while last time out. Man, if only he buried that post shot in the first.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Will Dano be able to navigate his Most Extreme Challenge tonight?

The Morning Jolt thing will never not be funny to me, maybe because calling into radio programs to win something is starting to sound like getting a phosphate for a nickel at the Soda Fountain in 1895.

That and they make Dano of all people say an absolute word salad of a paragraph every game lmfao

Thompson just seemed to skate around quickly but accomplish a whole lot of nothing.

I would prefer to see him stay over the lineup and get another chance considering Holtz hasn’t done much either, but don’t think either makes a difference.

both Will improve. Just a function of how quickly.

 

[Capt Nico Poo]

I put down the Devils to win this one in the HF pickem. Got first two picks right, i have faith in the Devs tonight.

Expecting a good effort by Hamilton and Hischier.
