Penticton YoungStars Tourney (VAN/EDM/CGY/WPG) - Part 2

[MarkGio]

Here are my three stars of the game.

1) Leon Draisaitl - BY FAR the best player on the ice tonight. Dynamic.
2) Kyle Platzer - Does everything well, played a stellar game tonight.
3) Mason McDonalds - Score could've been worse. Played very well.
HM) D.Nurse, P.Karnaukhov, B.Arnold, B.Christopher.

Terrible 3 stars

Oilers:

Laleggia
Rankin
Drasaitl

HM: Jones, Platzer, Winquist


Flames:

McDonald
Bennett
Andersson

HM: Poirer, Morrison, Arnold

4-3 minus the open netters lol

2-1 minus the open-netters, gifted PP goals, and gifted penalty shot

 

[Dack]

Was it me or did Bennett not play in the 3rd at all?

Wasnt just you he sat most of the third although I think it was more of Huska wanting to try out guys he will be able to use at the Ahl level because its not like Bennett was bad (He had/created a ton of chances).

 

[JurassicTunga]

Also sucks for the Flames to have had injuries in back to back games to both Kylington and Culkin. Hopefully Kylington plays against the Canucks.

 

[1989]

Very few players wanted to go with him back in the WHL.

I don't actually know if he is or not, but I think he'd be the type of fighter who goes insane on a guy, win or lose. Probably not a fun fight for anyone involved.

4-3 minus the open netters lol

Still a win, no?

Nurse wrecked him.

Big mistake, Rasmus.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

My three stars would be Draisaitl, Christoffer, and McDonald.

Yeah, we sorely missed Culkin after he went out and I didn't see Morrison out there much either near the end. I really wanted to see Kylington though, hope he can play the 'Nucks.

lol...don't poke the bear Rasmus

Nurse gave him an out but he had to prove how tough he was
Nurse tuned him in pretty darn quick

 

[McAsuno]

Agreed. McDonald played really great. This Christoffer kid works hard every shift. Not too bad of a player.

Please explain.

I don't like it, because traditionally speaking, defensive players consisted of two types of plays: taking away the puck (finesse) or separating the body from the puck (physical).
I'm not saying I want to see defensive players hook or trip a player on a breakaway - I'm saying that the league is taking away a perfectly legal play (taking away the puck) by muddying the line with not touching the player in addition to that, when in reality the puck has already left the control of the breakaway player in question. They're accusing/penalizing the defender of making a physical play when he's made a finesse play.

I agree its a dumb rule and a bandaid fix to a major problem

 

[Dack]

Good
Mcdonald
Lallegia

Bennett played the 3rd but his ice time was somewhat reduced.

Wow, Draisaitl has what? 7 points in the 2 games?

 

[McPuritania]

Agreed. McDonald played really great. This Christoffer kid works hard every shift. Not too bad of a player.

Yeah, he's been pretty dang good. Wonder how long he sticks in the big camp. Wouldn't mind seeing him get a few pre-season games.

 

[KlefDown]

"Leon Draisaitl says he observed the Calgary d-men cheat behind the net during the game & saw an opportunity on his pass on tying goal"

that hockey IQ

 

[McChucky]

Loving Cristoffer, he should get more playing time this fall. I liked Mason MacDonald too. Bennett, Nurse and Draisaitl all played well.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Good
Mcdonald
Lallegia

but he's slow, so he's a bust.

 

[Rebuilt]

Nurse and Draisaitl were excellent for the Oilers. I thought McDonald was the star for the Flames but that little guy Mangiapane has real potential.

 

[tmurfin]

Good game overall, just wish the officiating hadn't altered the game as much as it did. It's not like it was a riot out there, I don't know why they kept everyone on such a tight leash.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

I still don't see how anyone found that entertaining outside of the 3rd period


it was a drag tbh bc of the refs

 

[MarkGio]

Please explain.

Laleggia was easily the Oilers best player. Are you kidding?!?

Rankin was all over the ice and back checking Flames players. Causing turnovers
