Stanley gonna figure out that their's a time and a place for stick checks he should got the body on him, or at least tried.

 

[Daximus]

He should order Enstrom sticks...

Stanley would be Lord Stanley then...

hahaha just a 12 foot stick

That is one thing about tall players that can be worrisome. They tend to rely on their reach a lot in junior as it works against slower skaters. Then they get to the NHL and find themselves reaching on plays where they should be skating.

I see we got the local Edmonton ref's tonight.........................maybe not

 

[AlphaLackey]

True...

Thorburn made a career of that...

Thorburn was and is a genuine nice guy.

Lucic has a gnarled and wretched heart, with a face to match.

Wow !

Mind-blowing thought...

He’ll learn. He’s getting a lot of responsibility now, doing PK and all.

Poolparty's tongue is always out of his mouth. He's like a cow

You of all people reaching for plus minus. That's a good one.

That would be meaningful if I was using plus/minus to evaluate a player.

I'm just laughing at things.

(Aside: also 5v5 goal differential is better than plus/minus since it removes special teams... not good, but slightly less worse)

 

[bustamente]

As Sip would say" pass to someone that can score Copp"

 

[John Agar]

I don't know either personally...

But professionally... Thorburn was an honest man...

Lucic is putting in time...

Sip isn’t here cuz we’re all under 10000 posts.

 

[Mathil8]

Lemieux drawing penalty = good

 

[surixon]

Niku needs to work on his gap and he needs to be tougher infront of the net.

 

[MardyBum]

Lemieux already getting to Nurse

 

[Afterburner]

Such an elitist

 

[Daximus]

Really like the way Roslovic is controlling play. Kept the momentum going but slowed up enough to get a change. They lost possession but he looks good.

 

[bustamente]

Lemieux already getting to Nurse

That's the second time that Lemmy got under his skin the first time Nurse whacked him on the back which the ref missed

 

[Daximus]

Lemieux already getting to Nurse

This is what he does. It's not all bad penalties he draws some too.

 

[John Agar]

It's not about quantity...

It's about quality...

 

[Afterburner]

I like Lemieux he's a little **** disturber

 

[Daximus]

Niku needs to work on his gap and he needs to be tougher infront of the net.

He seems good in the corners with his edgework but I agree. He's not overly strong though.

 

[bustamente]

Ref's getting paid by the calls tonight

 

[Afterburner]

Refs are all about the penalties tonight
