Bolduc!

Very good comparison. Plek may have been a bit faster.

Wow. Wolfe standing on his head.

No tsn feed on sportsnet. Homer calgary broadcast only. At least theyre both very good.

Lots of non playoff teams to start the season, but at least the byes are getting the wins.

Boys looking tentative here. Execute for 5 minutes.

Ya. Slaf and Bolduc should be doing the same thing on different pp. Slaf doesnt belong on the half wall. Slaf net front on pp1. Bolduc net front pp2. Or vice versa.

Good read by Dobes.

Dobes loses his net a lot.

Great patience by Dobson on that goal.

Guhle is too good with such a good contract. I would only trade him if the return was a good 2nd line centre or equivalent. Even then, i hate the idea. The injuries are getting old, but im still a big Guhle fan.

Brutal. He's been such a solid defender from day one, but cant stay healthy.

Or ice time is that of a #6 defenseman who doesnt play pp or pk.

St Louis worked with Anderson for over a season and helped him completely reshape his game. Everyone wanted a powerhorse who can score 25 to 30 on the 2nd line. After working with MSL, he's a 15 to 20 goal 3rd liner, PK forward and extremely import part of the squad. Last year, despite his amazing shooting percentage, Laine was a trainwreck 5 on 5, and he hurt the team multiple times by making the wrong play with and without the puck. Overall, I've liked Laine's play so far this year. It would be nice if he could score on the PP and start potting some 5 on 5 goals though. Im sure as the season rolls along, Laine will get his time in the top 6. And he'll likely be a much more effective player. I have a lot of faith in MSL coaching style after seeing his work with Anderson and Gallagher.

Demidov play before the goal was so dynamic. Hutson shake and bake followed by pass to caufield. How the hell did he find that corner? A foot fro. The goal line. A hole the size of a puck and he found it. Unbelievable.

What about leaving the forwards and swapping dobson and hutson? Eric Engels suggested it. Hutson could find laine in any crowd. Would free up demidov a bit possibly as well. Bolduc looks too good in front of the net i think.

I saw quite a few smart plays from him like safe passes. Hold and hard around. Things where last year he would try the old one vs three, lose the puck, resulting in an odd man rush against.

Ya man. Im excited to see how he fairs over the year. I just hope team defense doesnt take a big hit. Armia was elite defensively and Devo was excellent as well. The twam looks better on paper offensively, but defensively maybe not. Go habs go.

Hutson better hope he doesnt regress or get hurt. 72 million is a lot of money.

I dont know why im such a Ghule fan, but I dont want to trade him for some reason.

He just put the gm on notice. Heres the cap space you want. Put a team behund me to win, or im out of here.

Poor start by the boys. Monty swimming.

Laine played a pretty solid game last night. I liked what i saw. Hopefully this continues. Because he was quite effective 5 on 5. Against goons though. But still.

I was in a meeting but it looked like that guy randomly started punching dach. Was there more to it?
