[Norris4Norris]

Nice video from TSN where they give Greig the player of the game and talk about his all around impact on the game.

World Juniors Canada beats Finland first place Group A | TSN

Captain Mason McTavish scored and notched a pair of assists Monday as Canada topped Finland 6-3 at the world junior hockey championship. Connor Bedard and Ridly Greig also added a goal and a helper each, while Brennan Othmann, Tyson Foerester and William Dufour also found the back of the net for...

let me guess Ridly Greig isn't in the HF top 50 prospects polling right now...

Only 1.5 prospects from each team on average would be in the top 50 so I wouldn't sweat it. Sanderson is our lock. Then it's a toss up between Pinto/Greig.

Ridley is our Darcy Tucker?

Darcy Tucker was the Leafs’ Ridly Greig we just didn’t know it yet.

He just looks like a straight up killer in that image.

Isn’t this greigs third year of eligibility. He really should be one of the better players

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Can't wait to watch him this year. 1 more step and add some strength and wow.

Isn’t this greigs third year of eligibility. He really should be one of the better players

Only if he played at 16. Turned 20 last week,

Yes, Greig has certainly been the best forward outside that top line for Canada. The fact that he's creating so much offense from the third line while also not getting PP time is really impressive. Not to mention the defensive play and shot blocking on the PK.

He is certainly off to a good start in making a case for himself to join the big club right away.

What you're seeing right now is the reason Chychrun isn't part of the Senators.

He is getting PP time. He's centering the 2nd unit.

He is getting PP time. He's centering the 2nd unit.

Scored a PPG last game and key PP play this game.

Greig is a monster.

Can't wait to see this guy either on the best shutdown line in hockey with Pinto, or a key cog on a powerful top line with Stutzle.

Btw, he isn't even playing his best offensive game, imo. Y'all seeing what I been hyping about since I've been closely watching him in the AHL and WHL 2 years ago.

 

[DueDiligence]

Isn’t this greigs third year of eligibility. He really should be one of the better players

And he is, so isn't that great!

 

[SensFactor]

Keep Greig & Pinto.....use Formenton, Boucher, Brannstrom, Jarventie, Thomson, JBD as trade bait in a Chychrun trade.

He's one of the best players as someone who just turned 20.

 

[OD99]

Just like Brady, the Riddler making the haters look like Jokers.

Did he have haters?

He is turning into a Canadian fan favourite and I can see the makeup of this team lending itself to national support when they make the playoffs.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

If Greig starts in Belleville - he won’t be there for very long. He’ll force Dorian’s hand pretty quick.

 

[NyQuil]

What you're seeing right now is the reason Chychrun isn't part of the Senators.

That and he plays the wrong side.

"new phone who dis" - Dorion when Arizona calls back about Greig

 

[Sens Vader]

He's so good

As long as it’s not 4th line that’s fine.

 

[SpezDispenser]

That and he plays the wrong side.

lol, there's so much talk about that. Does he play right? Yes. Is he good at it? Pretty. Why did he suck last year? Injuries. Are you sure? No.

Like....20 pages worth.

Every prospect has haters these days. Easy to find someone being confidently wrong because they've got a podcast with their buddies.

Don't think many sens fans were upset with the pick though.

That's embarrassing.

Greig wasn't at the top of my list (wanted Bourque or Peterka) but he wasn't an off-the-board selection and fully deserved to go where he did.
