Tony D off the Boat from Russia scores his first Isles goal in OT.

Told you he could help an NHL team

 

[YukonCornelius]

Cool, he’s still a huge piece of shit.

 

[Coaches Coroner]

A migrant worker returns home.

 

[hamzarocks]

Thats cool and all, and the isles look like they will definately make a WC spot again this year

but isnt anyone going to mention that Luka Doncic got traded in one of the most bizarre trades ever over in the NBA

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Historical.

 

[miscs75]

Sir, you are incorrect. McMurray is a piece of shit.

 

[stopclickbait]

Hard to not the root for the guy considering the kind of people that hate him.

 

[BrockLobster]

What did he do?

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

The sad truth is he’s a good player who tends to piss off people. I liked him at NYR even though my politics are the polar opposite of his.
As far as I can see he’s not said anything too egregious for many years. If he doesn’t upset his teammates (and for a lot of the time in New York he got on well with people with v different views) he’s going to do really well.
He needs to stop being so hot headed with his own teammates and save it for his opponents. If your own player plays shit you support them, don’t attack them.
Obviously given who he plays for now I hope he fails miserably

 

[Stickpucker]

Not mentioned is how unreal hes been in his own end too. He saved 3 goals tonight with defensive plays.

Hes been unbelievably good for the isles these first 4 games.

When those nerdy analytic score cards come out he’ll probably have the best one on the isles

Let's see em

100% if he can be a good teammate, and is coachable, he still has a good chunk of an NHL career ahead of him. Consistency in that regard has been his struggle, and the hot headedness is part of it. Politics have 0 to do with that.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

I'm still, I'm still Tony from D block, used to have a little, now I have a lot.

 

[MMANumminen]

I think now when society has took huge leaps to more tolerant environment, he will do fine

 

[SI90]

Most surprising thing for me is he’s been solid in his own end and has made some nice defensive plays.

 

[DuklaNation]

This player is 29 now. But posters are insulting him based on minor incidents from several years ago. Says more about them as people than anything else. Maybe let it go.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Tony is based

 

[Rcknrollkillnmachine]

Who doesn't love a Maverick come back in from the cold? Great finish.

Sure he helping them out of a lottery pick, it really doesn't do anything for the NYI long-term as they aren't s erious SC contender and their pipeline isn't all that great.

Hopefully his time in Russia taught him to more thoroughly appreciate the opportunity he has to play in the NHL.
