Embrace The Hate
His team and Nurse did get run last night. Repeatedly. What deterrent effect did Nurse have?
What Golden Bear player was shaking in his skates going. "Oh no, Darnell Nurse!"
Maybe at some point this guy ends up being some kind of intimidating factor but lets just say he's not there yet playing against men. Which is fine, he's young.
But myself I think he's not ready to be any kind of deterring effect in the NHL squaring off in the touch WC.
Best thing the Oilers could do is give this kid some more time to develop before he gets his bell rung bad.
That said Nurse is a lot brighter than Teubert, I give him that hands down..
^no Golden Bear was shaking in his skates because they know they won't be facing him again this season. and I personally don't feel that Nurse is intimidating at the moment, but has a chance down the road to be like that, but not because of his fists, he's 19 and lost his cool at that game is all, but in the future he could very well have opposing players thinking they have to face Nurse if he plays a smart, disciplined game, hits hard, plays well defensively, scores his fair share of goals and points....i'm hoping for a Scott Stevens type that played this way and drove opposing players, goons and all, nuts! but i agree he's not there yet.
