Donkey to Mateychuk I hope
Elvis with a really solid game.
Elvis with a really solid game.
Luca 1st star, great game overall. Elvis was big early on, the team got better as the game went on, sign of a good team.
9 of the next 12 is on the road. The big test for the young guys coming up.

You could make an argument for Elvis or Luca but 1st career goal triumphs all.

Evason has to be up there for coach of the year right now

Lot of Credit to Elvis for weathering the storm early so the team could get its act together. Big time step up from the youth movement in Fantilli, KJ, LDBB, with Monahan out. Werenski as usual this year remains an absolute monster. Also, the fact that this team is missing Sillinger and Monahan and didn't seem to skip much of a beat is a really interesting story as we close in on trade deadline. Silinger+ could be a valuable trade chip if LDBB can effectively step in on those 3rd line minutes.
Holy shit, looks like Dean found a nice combo tonight for LDBB.

I wouldn't think he'd be in the conversation. Berube (Tor), Cassidy (LV), Carbury (Wash) and, yes, Arniel (WPG) would be my contenders at this point.
No insult to Evason. He's doing a fine job.

There is no way Cassidy or Berube belong in this discussion. Being new and making your great team great isn’t an accomplishment, and being a SCF contender when you were expected to be isn’t an accomplishment either.
I can agree with you on Carbury and Arniel though

I hate corny sports terms like this, but this team has a swagger that I'm not sure they've ever had. The confidence most of these guys have is off the charts right now.
We have a superstar in Werenski, and about another 6 guys who can become legitimate superstars. This is as awesome time to be a CBJ fan.
Lastly, I'm pretty sure #5 is our second best defensemen already. He plays well beyond his age. Those blocks on the late game powerplay were awesome.

I did not really agree one way or another when this was campaigned for - but I think there was/is a contingent here that wanted LDBB centering KJ.

We should've seen this coming, that's the way the Donkeys have been handed out this season. Good for old Silly.
Back from the game. Gotta say I love how the team salutes the home crowd after a win. Nice gesture. I wonder if it’s an Evason thing?
I think LDBB might be the real deal.
The topline wasn't quite the same though, they gave up more chances than they got, which has been a rarity with Monahan centering.

I doubt he tells them what to do. I think this is the growing leadership of the team showing appreciation for those of us that have stuck through this stuff.
