Fire Evason!!

What’s this heat he’s talking about?? Mateychuk can handle whatever that is better than any defender, other than Werenski. He’s arguably already a better PMD/passer coming out of the zone. And his defensive/neutral zone pinches and reads are just as good as anyone else on the team. Pair him with Gudbranson for f***s sake, and let them both play to their strengths.

He’s going to take some hits as guys will eventually take some runs at him because of his size, but, he’s clearly a smart enough, and strong enough player, to protect himself at the NHL level. Even the scary big-bad regular season.

What are the dudes quotes and opinions on Jiricek??

Evason seems to have his finger on the pulse of this group. I often wondered if those who followed Torts even had a pulse...

What does all of this even mean??

Serious question.

Werenski - Mateychuk
Provorov - Severson
Jiricek - Gudbranson

That’s how I would start the season

Let's hope the players do.

This one may not be pretty.

ps I'm always impressed that despite how their downtown has become a hollowed out shell of itself, St. Louis is a helluva sports town.

Lack of discipline is going to kill us all season, isn't it? Despite that, it's been a good start.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Never too early to claim that was a cheap call

Usually the problem with a young team. Hopefully that's mitigated as the season goes on with a coach like Evason.

That PASS though, omg. Mateychuk from the top of the circles in the defensive zone delivers a perfect tape to tape outlet pass to Chinakhov at the attacking blue line.

Same guy just said "Dean Edvinsson" instead of Evason. He's struggling. Mateyuck, too.

these announcers are regularly misidentifying Jackets players. Said shot by Voronkov when Chinakov (I-think) took shot off a pass. Called TFW DBB. Missed on several other in just last several minutes.

Lol.

I tried McElligot's broadcast but it wasn't in sync.

The passing is already MUCH better than it's been the past 3 years.

Will be interesting to see if he changes after the intermission.

If only it had ended up in the net so we'd have clips all over to show it off. The pass was a beauty.
