Player Discussion The Slaf Thread - Parabolic Growth Edition

[angusyoung]

For some reason he reminds me so much of Jethro Bodine from the Hillbillies

Every line he played on included Dach except for the rare shift. Apart from that it was a short stint with Dvo and Gally wherein he played with hussle and got 3 points in 3 game, then it was back to Dach as Laine had just come back. His first 7 games with 7 points was on the 1st line. I might have missed one odd game or two without Dach.

I guess this goes back to stat watching where people play well when they pick up points. Again, like I said before, people were noticing he was off and disengaged even WHEN he was picking up points no matter what line he was on.

Yes, he didn’t produce when he was paired with Dach, but he looked as disengaged on that line than he did on the others.

He’s back to playing intensely.

He’s only 20. I agree with you, he can’t pull dead weight now. But imagine him in five years.

I hope so!!

It's new lol, go to BMW Montreal and try to buy that car, they probably don't have it in stock and will have it shipped from a dealership in Canada that does have it in stock. The guy drove it down from Kingston and took the opportunity to advertise his dealership.

He's obviously messing around...

Why do we always have to rush things or never be happy? So what if Slaf is still many years away from driving his own line or if he ever does. This reminds me of the Suzuki isn't a 1C talk that used to be on this board

He is so young I'm just happy to have him , the organisation has been very clear about the plan in place with him , I think Slaf has everything around him to succeed , the fact he's already shown success at his size and age is really good for us.

Newhook was playing very well on that line but you wouldn't know because you don't actually watch any games.

In what world ?

 

[morhilane]

In what world ?

Some people think effort and speed is enough.

I have no idea who that is.

That being said, is anyone going to see the new Nosferatu movie? I’m going to.

But what’s up with them releasing it on X-Mas day?

That's the great Zidane, with elf ears.

Sorry, who’s Zidane?

I don't know if you are messing with me, if not. He's one of the greatest football(soccer) players.

Maybe you will remember the french bald guy who hit an adversary with his head during the World Cup final about 20 years ago? he was ejected for that and France lost the game.

I don’t. Soccer’s not my thing. I don’t watch it at all.

That was more of a global cultural moment than just a soccer thing
