[snipes]

Always my favorite hockey of the year.

Me too, my favourite to watch by far. I was watching the exhibition game while the Oilers were playing.

How was Lauzon, heard he threw a few big hits, how about his o-zone play and d-zone play?

He and Myers were probably the two most impactful D on the ice for either team.

Chabot was excellent IMO. I really like the Chabot Myers pairing.

I think all the D played pretty well last night. They were not challenged often.

Dubois (needs let his play do the talking, he had 2 penalties and was close to getting 2 others. when he wants he can be good)
Cirelli (missed a few shifts after he got rocked by Tolvanen. Picked it up in the third)
Kuokkanen (pretty bad game, Couldn't get any offense going)

Huh?...Yes Cirelli was rocked, but bounced right back up and was out for regular shift after PP, And if I recall laid out a Finnish defender

 

[Breakers]

Don't count on it.

He'll be in school next year.

He'll be in school next year.

If you say so but Colorado needs as much help as they can get, if they feel he is ready next year he's gone.

Vancouver is also one of the worst teams in the league.

They kept their rookie Boeser in school and he had a way better year than Jost is having now.

 

[tigervixxxen]

There's the AHL too. Boeser wasn't a top 10 pick. Not every situation can be equated. I'd lean to Jost leaving after this year.

The Canucks didn't choose to keep Boeser in school. He had surgery for an injured wrist last week. He'd be at the WJC otherwise, just as he was last year.

I think he was talking about staying in school as opposed to turning pro.

Ahh YEAH they did.

WJC and school have nothing to do with one another.
