GDT: Preseason Game 4: Utah @ Colorado 5:00PM MDT - Scripps, UtahHC+

What took you guys so long to figure out Hayton?

I'm dense. It's a blessing and a curse.


OooooOoOo

See what happens when Maccelli doesn't play...

Doan playing center until Bjugstad comes back, or are they keeping him out of the lineup for precautionary reasons? Prefer they keep Doan with Maccelli for match up reasons.

OooooOoOo

The THING is also dense, that's what gives him his super powers and makes him fantastic! Do you have super powers?

Preseason game and Jakey is already calling out Hayton...

Eventually cream rises to the top

Yep, and I couldn't be more excited to watch that unfold.

In fairness, there comes a point where you need to cut bait and move on from a player's draft projections. He just did it on draft day, the rest of is chose to wait 6 years lol.

Does an abnormally fast metabolism at 36 count as a super power? If so I'm a fking god.


OOOooOoO

Hayton will have a career year just for Jakey

 

[lanky]

I'm too stubborn to give up on Hayton. I think he's a high end 2C.

 

[Mangosteen]

Ok, my wife just called it. Hayton will be our All Star representative this year.

He certainly has great positioning. Other than a 30 game (or so) stretch where he actually score points I have not seen "high end 2C".

 

[Jakey53]

They still haven't, just like you Jakey! I'll bet a dozen donuts (not bad for a guy who doesn't bet) that Bear see's it as I do and Hayton will be centering the top line, to start the season.

Of course he will. I'll bet you a dozen donuts it doesn't last all year.

I didn't call out Hayton this year, not yet. Everyone else seems to have, except CDroppings.

I'm too stubborn to give up on Hayton. I think he's a high end 2C.

Maybe for a team like Utah, certainly not on a SC contender.

 

[Jakey53]

I wish he would.

 

[Coyotedroppings]

Hayton will for sure start out on the top line w/Schmaltz & Keller, but with Hayton's injury history, we could see that open a spot up and once they put Doan in there for either Bjugstad on line 3 or Hayton on line 1 - the production he will put up will keep him there

Eventually cream rises to the top

Entirely possible, Doan is quite responsible. Should that happen, the only question (imo) would come down to balance for the rest of the lines.
