NHL: Around the League 53

Did you ever think that maybe they are trying to keep him practicing with the team as long as possible without burning his 9 games?
I think it's more that they don't want him in Guelph. I heard that they want Guelph to trade him to a contender, like the Knights.
 
I know the name Tortorella is a swear word around here but.

Phili has no goaltending. Ersson has a .871 sp and Fedotov has a .821 sp.

They tried Kolosov tonight and so far he has let in 4 goals on 14 shots.

Hard to play in front goaltenders like that.

Yup. Having a guy like Mrazek is an underrated asset. If you’re trying to bottom out then yeah get the worst of the worst goalies but if you’re at the stage where you want to develop your young players that have to be able to play with some level of confidence in their goalie. Can’t imagine that not effecting your decision making.

At this age he needs those premium players surrounding him to serve him. Doesn't have that nor the best coach in the league to understand how to get the most out of him.
He’s a PP specialist and has been since he broke his leg years back. People forget TB rolled to that bubble Championship without Stamkos

Stamkos is a one trick pony these days. It is a hell of a trick, though
 
McDavid went down injured in The first shift against Columbus. Just an odd thing that was self inflicted.

Yeah, he was tripped by the guy standing by the bench. I saw a slo-mo where you can see his left foot go into the boards pretty hard.

Colorado off to a rough start this season. Gave up 3 goals in the first 6 minutes to Tampa.
 
I’m slow on the uptake. What happened to this guy?
No one really knows at this point. It’s all conjecture. Some say he got paid and doesn’t care. Some say he may be playing hurt. Maybe it’s both for all we know. He does seem like a very streaky player as far as effort and production go.
