Sign him up to play 2nd base for the Red Sox
He was great last playoffs with the Nucks watched most of their games and he was one of the best forward if not the best one of this groupe
"Talent is one thing, but you need to be tight as a group!"...I love this kid. Pasta has developed into a great team leader.

I think defensive details are what he will need to work on, but you’re right, they should be a scary pair to play against.

I did that last month. It can be confusing.

He hasn't killed penalties in years. In the last 5 seasons combined he's played less than 16 minutes on the pk.
Patrick Brown in 11 games for the B's last year played more minutes on the PK than TyJo has played in the last 4 seasons.

Remember when McAvoy broke into the NHL, he was paired with Chara. He got his Z back!

He saw how the cats did it the last two years (different methods but still all about the team and grit) and expects some of that buy in from this team.

Funny how different leagues and countries handle these things. Kaskisuo received a 5-game suspension for that from the SHL. If he'd done it in Australia, in any sport, he'd have been banned for a year. At least. Just a huge no-no.
Will give him points for the accuracy of the throw though. Maybe he chose the wrong sport!
My issue with that is it's a mis-use of Lindholm. Carlo can suck up those defensive draws all day but if you want to identify the no. 1 reason why Hampus had some struggles last year I think this is it - his D zone game is decent but it has limits and for him to play well and make an impact he needs some time where he can get the puck on his stick and be making offensive plays. Last season he got just 34% offensive zone starts 5v5, easily the lowest in his career, and I think that was detrimental. He's not a shut down defender.
That said, I think he and Carlo do make a solid pairing, you're just asking a lot of Lindy if you keep expecting him to take on that much of a purely defensive workload. We've seen that it leads to mistakes and it takes away some of his natural talents. So IMO if the pairing is to stick together it either needs to get some more offensive time or Lindholm also needs to get some more opportunities playing with Charlie or even Peeke or whoever. Anything that gives him a little more freedom to get up ice.
Well he wasn't able to work much on his upper body until a few months ago, but he had a chance to do a lot of work on his lower body , and likely his core. As well as cardio.

Big fan of Poitras! I was here last year, but stayed away when he got injured.I think B1BruinsNation has a nice ring to it
Legit forgot there was a training-camp thread. Thought the Swayman thread was the only one in the board lol.
