He didn’t have a good game.
Neither did White, Smith, Boedker.

If I didn’t see his name on the gamesheet I legit would have forgot Boedker played last nightNeither did White, Smith, Boedker.
Probably to give the team time to make some moves? Or give some kids like Formenton their 9-game taste before sending them back to junior?
I wouldn't worry too much...unless they are still in Belleville by December.

Remember in February when we were all “well I guuueesss Kyrou and a pick for Hoffman is alright.” lol
I think Wolanin despite how well he showed will benefit from going to the AHL and being the man. Playing lots of minutes and learning to be on the defensive side of the puck.
Chlapik looked far more ready and impactful than White. White needs to actually create some offense. But i guess White is friends with Brady so he makes the team.
On what hell of an earth does Wolanin get sent down and Harpur is still on the team?
I get that it's due to contracts, but it doesn't make it any less ridiculous.
Wow we won a preseason game!
Gonna be a great year. Looking forward to the draft!
Yup very excitingThe 32nd pick is going to do damage in 2024.
Only cuts I've disagreed with so far.
Chlapik is definitely more deserving than White at the minimum, and Wolanin is definitely more deserving than Harper/Demelo.
I'd Rather Chlapik be put in an offensive role. White has been pretty good on the PK and is more useful outside the top 6 than Chlapik at the moment.
Formenton is astonishingly fast.
Lajoie has a ton of poise considering his experience.
Duchene, provided health, is going to have an enormous year offensively.
Tkachuk is going to be a fan favorite before the 20 game mark.
Stone is still as good as ever.
Condon had a very nice, calm game.
The penalty kill was very good.
Most of this means little until we see a sample of regular season games.
It might be preseason but it’s exciting and definitely encouraging !!! These young men just needed the right deployment, I think after a month of regular season we will all feel a little better about our summer moves.

My goodness Eugene, which one of those guys was a summer move? Our summer moves have been EK and Hoffman out for Boedker, Demelo and Tierney in. Boedker has been invisible, Demelo is a 7th dman and Tierney fighting with SMITH for a centre spot. Please explain how we'll be happy about this when the two guys that left are putting up 60-80pt seasons.It might be preseason but it’s exciting and definitely encouraging !!!

I never understood the awe with White. He looks like a passenger type player IMO. No flash, barely noticeable, probably does all the little things right but not a driver of any sort
Was there ever "awe"? I think a lot of people were disappointed with the pick at the time, somewhat encouraged by his offensive numbers in his freshman year, then grasping at positives since he turned pro.
That seems sustainable....Faceoffs last night:
Duchene: 7 on 14 - 50%
Tierney: 8 on 14 - 57%
White: 4 on 8 - 50%
Smith: 13 on 16 - 81%
