Post-Game Talk: sword

[SML2]

If Miller takes like one more step he can be a Norris contender going forward. Even if he doesn't he's still a stud, but we have every reason to believe he will.

I don't see Miller as prolific enough offensively to be a Norris contender in this era. He has come a long way though and now that he plays somewhat physically I can actually like him again. He strikes me a a Colton Parayko. Big, but not a killer physically, not truly offensive or defensive but pretty good in each end.

good reaction and hands by Laf to corral that pass from Copp that was a bit off target

Shesterkin should play all games come PO time

huh? You mean right up to the playoffs or every game in the playoffs? Georgiev shouldn't even be able to help Shesty sharpen his skates or get anywhere near the net

Georgie with a .765 save percentage. He is not an NHL goalie. I doubt he could make an ECHL team. A decent NHL goalie is close to .900 save percentage.

This game does not go to OT with Shesty in the net.

Hell, I am almost 70 years old and never played a game of hockey but I bet I can play goalie better than Georgie. /S

Yep no doubt that could have easily been easy to fumble and those guys were on the ice for a while.

Georgiev
Nemeth
Strome

Reported.

 

[bmoak]

crazy that Georgie looked so bad after his last start

I've always thought his problems were ninety percent half-mental.

A bunch of guys had excellent games. Trouba's ninja stick to prevent the 2 on none probably saved the game. Chytil, Copp, and Motte all continue to play well. K'Andre looking more and more like a first pair defenseman (would love to see him paired with Fox next year).

The points are great for Laf, but the way he got those points are the best part. A goal from driving to the net and trusting his shot/moves enough to go 5-hole (plus 3 shots on goal--the third game this month that he's had 3+ SOG, after only putting up 3+ shots four times in all of November-February). And an assist on a broken play from a bad pass. The Laf of three months ago would have peeled back into open ice to re-set. Today, he collected the puck while assessing the ice, and made the quick pass to K'AM for the goal. The game is slowing down for the kid.

I just want Kakko back and this team will be complete

 

[McRanger92]

This is the most hype I've seen the arena in awhile. This is a popular team.

Been like that since Opening Night

His physical game has been stepping up. His offense will come. He has focused on defense first.

I think you are selling him short.

Phone battery at 0%. Proof that Georgiev was in net tonight.

Andrew Copp is a really good player. There’s not a ton of flash, but he just plays such a good overall game.

Lafeniere is showing the potential we all knew he had. He’s scoring and has SWAGGER. Great goal and assist tonight.

Miller continues to show how good he is.

Can we also keep Motte past this season? I love what he brings to the bottom 6.

Copp is Rock solid ..

Mines at 76%. Geo's save %.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Chytil looks a lot better lately and make no mistake that his line mates are playing into it. No more black hole Gauthier to waste all of the chances. Laf-Chytil is developing into a very good pair.

Laf-Chytil-Goodrow is at least an above average third line.

I'm pretty sure Buffalo's MSG feed used the same camera feed that we got meaning they also got lots of random shots of Fox on the bench, coming off the bench, and celebrating on the bench for no reason. Everything but the spotlight cam.

 

[Peltz]

What do you hate more?

Georgiev.... or MSG Spotlight?

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Probably has to do with the fact that people are in the office less and face to face client meetings are still lagging, so helps to limit the amounts of suits in the stands on a nightly basis. Hope it continues.

Where did you get my list of top upcoming spotlight cam candidates?

One of my strangest pointless peeves is that other nhl teams and 2 rivals play on a channel named after our arena. Bring back Sports channel.
