Prospect Info: WJC 2022 part 2: Picking Back Up In August

[Boss Man Hughes]

I found Bedard very disappointing. Other than an amazing shot he didn't have much to his game IMO. I was expecting blazing speed and sick hands but didn't see that.

Let's hope Canada has a competent coach in December and we can get a better idea of what Bedard can do.

 

[sheed36]

Just saw the Bedard post game interview on TSN and did he just say he was shittin' himself when asked about that McTavish defensive play and trying to get that puck off the line along with another curse word?

I need to see a replay of that interview now.

He's extremely young.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

I treat people with the respect that they deserve.....so continue calling 18 year old boys names from the safety of your couch if that makes you feel better about your life.

Same crap from you

From the safety of your couch you disrespect everyone here, guess what, some are likely children

So you can take the hypocritical bs and sit on it

 

[Sagikev]

Stephane Leroux has the absolute worst questions. Not even questions, he just gives them one word and they have to work with it.

Lmao Mactavish with the "I dont know what the F... Sorry. What I did." During his interview.

I don't watch Leroux for my mental health, what was the question specifically? And that was McTavish' answer?

 

[Mrb1p]

He said something like how did you do it?

He opened up to Mason with "World champion?!?.... *crickets*....?

 

[Rapala]

That final game wasn't too bad for hockey in August. I only took in three games both Semi's and this one. I couldn't even be bothered with the quarters so I ended up missing out on the USA getting dumped.

Lmao comedy gold

 

[Aces on the road]

Penalties 7 and 1, not possible in tight game.

Media all-star team:
G: Jesper Wallstedt (MIN)
D: Olen Zellweger (ANA)
D: Emil Andrae (PHI)
F: Mason McTavish (ANA)
F: Joakim Kemell (NSH)
F: Jan Mysak (MTL)

really happy for mysak. Quite the accomplishment for him.

 

[sheed36]

Couldn't find a replay of the entire Bedard TSN post game interview but found this partial one where he said he was shittin' himself over that McTavish goal line save and then dropping a F bomb. I think he dropped another F bomb right at the end of the interview as well.

Bedard is definitely not robo cop mcdavid

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

I found it dumb to keep playing same pp unit for almost all 2 minutes then throw other line out for 20 seconds or less . The first unit wasn’t doing anything ,so why not try second unit . I’m glad they won in end but coaching could of been better .

Cameron is a Cyborg, zero ability to make changes when things aren’t going well, saw at his first world juniors and again in this one

 

[RationalExpectations]

MIN trading up for Wallstedt and DET favoring Cossa looks better for the Wild than the Wings.

I don't get how Kemell dropped that much, he seems to find openings every game.

I love how McTavish plays, hard forechecker, shoot first mentality. He has outclassed everybody in this tournament in my opinion.

If I know that I am dealing with a child I certainly would have a more measured response unlike yourself. If I make you and a small group of poor posters insecure that is a you problem and you should just use the ignore feauture. There are plenty of very good posters who I have never had a problem with because they are reasonable and knowledgeable. The ones who have a problem with are dishonest and /or clueleless and are not willing to engage in civil discourse.

It's ok you'll be able to catch USA disappointing once again this coming December

 

[HuGort]

I mentioned before that when the young guys during last year's playoff run mentioned how Perry, Staal, Weber and other vets spoke to them and took charge, it reminded me of the '86 team being coached by Gainey and Robinsons.

We had 9 rookies that playoff. Different scenarios. I think Sherbrooke Calder Cup win year before played role in '86 cup win. That was good team

 

[SOLR]

Bedard has an awesome shot, but his shot selections in OT were pretty bad

Don't think so, in a 3 v 3, taking the screen shot is highly advisable (when you have no support) - but you have to hit the net (he did).

 

[Habs Halifax]

eh no i disagree. the trade was a wash at best. but anyways let's not start that here

You want to disagree but you don't want to start it here?

 

[HomaridII]

That Mctavish save gets crazier every time I replay it. How did that not go in. He bats it down exactly on its edge, precisely on its edge, so it bounces exactly straight up. Its incredible. Once in a lifetime play. Reporters dubbed it the "Stick of God" save.

I've never seen anything like it. What an ending to a game.

Note: 2 Anaheim picks. What's happening with Martin Madden Jr.??? Has he re-signed with the Ducks???

Note also: we chose Dach over Kemmel with the 13th pick. We'll see how that goes...

We never knew what Madden Jr.'s contract status was. We all assumed he might become available only because of the change in management in Anaheim. And sometimes, guys come in and start bringing in their own people. So we hoped maybe Madden Jr. would be one of those Verbeek would get rid of. But that was a pipe dream of ours because Verbeek wouldn't get rid of the guy in charge of scouting and selecting all the young stars on the Ducks.

But it was never reported if his contract was up.

Well I expected he would quit hen he wasn't made GM.

That could have been a possibility. Although they might have been open with him in telling him that if he doesn't get the GM gig, they still want him as an Assistant GM & Director of Amateur Scouting.

The Habs also interviewed Sedgwick for the GM gig before they finally landed on Hughes. Sedgwick still stayed even if he didn't get the job.
