GDT: Traverse City Tournament 2016

[GoldiFox]

Great shot by Kuokkanen!

He's already made some good 50/50 plays in all zones. This kid is going to get some hype in London.

Nice point-blank save of a PP slapper by Ned.

 

[GoldiFox]

Ned has been excellent attacking the puck. I suppose he needs that athleticism to succeed at his height

 

[geehaad]

Ned is taking some fire in this 2-man ad. 16 seconds left in it, something like 3 or 4 shots generated on it so far.

 

[geehaad]

2-on-1 break on the PK leads to penalty. 19 seconds before good guys go on PP.

 

[DaveG]

Huge kill there, huge kill.

 

[CandyCanes]

Wow Ned has looked sharpppp to start. He's made some huge saves.

 

[GoldiFox]

McKeown has looked pretty good holding down the blue line in the o-zone. Good awareness

 

[GoldiFox]

Walmark has an impressive array of poor shots

Walmark has an impressive array of poor shots

I like how after he sailed the net for the third time in a row from the same spot on the ice, he did the old "there must be a hole in my tennis racket" move.

 

[CandyCanes]

Andrew Poturalski has some impressive skating abilities, but his shot looks really weak. Also Jimmy Vesey on the Rangers has stood out to me.

Still he's made a couple of sweet cross ice feeds.

Noah Carroll not looking out of place.

I have been impressed with the puck movement. The PP they are running with a pivot right in the middle of the ice seems to be somewhat working.

Seems like outside of a few chances and a 5-on-3, they are handily outplaying the Rangers. Possession numbers have to be pretty lop-sided.

 

[NotOpie]

Play in general looks to be pretty darn fast.

Know Roy and Gauthier are on a line.

Kuokkanen and Foegele seem to be on a line.

Tolchinsky and Wallmark are on a line.

Have yet to figure out the 3rd player on each.

Think the D pairings are Fleury/McKeown, Wesley/Bean, and Carroll/Peters.

He's looked really good so far.

 

[CandyCanes]

Kinda fun to see those 2 giants on a line.

Know Roy and Gauthier are on a line. Elyniuk

Kuokkanen and Foegele seem to be on a line. ???

Tolchinsky and Wallmark are on a line. Zykov

Think the D pairings are Fleury/McKeown, Wesley/Bean, and Carroll/Peters.

Not sure who is with Kuokkanen and Foegele...

 

[the halleJOKEL]

i like our defenser mans

 

[NotOpie]

Not sure who is with Kuokkanen and Foegele...

I've seen Smallman and Bishop and I think Lorentz on the 4th line although Smallman might be the RW on Kuokkanen's line.

 

[DaveG]

May have been Poturalski, not sure on that though. I think I saw Smallman there for a spell as well but that was probably after the PK.

 

[NotOpie]

Not sure who is with Kuokkanen and Foegele...

I think it's Poturalski #57.

 

[geehaad]

Andrew Poturalski ... his shot looks really weak.

That was something I noted about him previously as well.

 

[NotOpie]

Neds on again.

 

[NotOpie]

Boys looked gassed on that one.

 

[NotOpie]

And back ahead....nice play by Fleury to set that up. Meaning to set himself up.
